Spring Boot is a very popular microservice framework that significantly simplifies web application development by providing Java developers with a platform to get started with an auto-configurable, production-grade Spring application.

The Kubernetes integration for Grafana Cloud helps users easily monitor and alert on core Kubernetes metrics using the Grafana Agent, our lightweight observability data collector optimized for sending metric, log, and trace data to Grafana Cloud. It packages together a set of easy-to-deploy manifests for the Agent, along with prebuilt dashboards and alerts.
