Visualizing Kubernetes: The Power of Dashboard
summary
Dashboard is the official web UI for Kubernetes and claims to be production ready, letting operators visually monitor, troubleshoot and CRUD cluster resources. The 1.4 release adds showing all API objects, a new navigation and an admin section to lay groundwork for RBAC. Built-in tooling surfaces CPU and memory graphs, pod logs and configMap-driven feature flags; the demo fixes a 500 error by toggling a configMap, rolling out a new replica set and rolling back when metrics reveal a memory leak.
