Container network metrics
filtering in Azure Container Networking Services (ACNS) is now available in
public preview.
In
containerized environments, the ingestion of excessive network metrics can lead
to inflated storage costs and cluttered dashboards, making it difficult to
maintain observability efficiency. Azure Container Networking Services (ACNS)
now offers container network metrics filtering, available in public preview, to
address this challenge.
This new
capability enables users to define fine-grained filters at the Cilium level
using a Custom Resource Definition (CRD), allowing metrics collection to be
scoped by namespace or pod. By filtering metrics before they reach Prometheus,
organizations can significantly reduce data volume, lower operational overhead,
and improve the clarity of their observability tools.
