Diving Into Kubernetes Diagnostics: My K8sGPT Journey as a Rookie

Greetings, Kubernetes enthusiasts! As a rookie to native Kubernetes—still finding my footing in logs and YAML—I was excited to dive into K8sGPT. This CNCF Sandbox project harnesses AI to scan Kubernetes clusters, diagnose issues, and explain them in simple English, weaving in SRE expertise with cutting-edge technology. I set it up on a local VMware VM running Ubuntu Server 24.04.3, and the experience was both educational and practical. In this blog, I’ll share what K8sGPT is, how I got it running, my hands-on experiences as a beginner, and an invitation for you to explore it too.
