* Runs the following objects on your cluster:

   * **node collector**:

        * runs as a DaemonSet on every node that has kubelet configured

        * uses cAdvisor to collect **container metrics** and fowards them to the

          cluster collector

        * uses a Checkmk agent to collect **machine sections** and forwards

          them to the cluster collector

   * **cluster collector**:

        * runs as a Deployment

        * receives metrics from every node collector instance on the cluster

          and stores them in memory
