# Purpose
Core Kubernetes service that provides basic metrics on CPU, memory, and disk that is used by Kubernetes for tooling such as scaling. Also, what is seen in [Headlamp](https://docs.alexlebens.dev/applications/headlamp) for live stats.
# Notes
Like some other services, it happily runs in the background without trouble.
