I am running a java application on a pod in the Kubernetes cluster. this is monitored by DataDog. so far pod logs are appearing in the datadog console. Now I got a new requirement to collect application metrics like Garbage collection and JVM metrices. I am looking for the help in the same. Should I need to run a sidecar container or Does datadog has the capability to collect application metrices by tuning some parameters in the Kubernetes deployments. Your help much appreciated.
I have setup datadog in the Kubernetes cluster. at this moment it is sending pod logs to datadog. now I would like to send application metrics like JVM metrics and Garbage collection.
