Setup Prometheus Monitoring on Kubernetes using Helm and Prometheus Operator Part 1

Part of the DevOps Bootcamp More infos here: https://bit.ly/3WrhlUp
Learn how to setup Prometheus Monitoring and Grafana on Kubernetes cluster using Helm chart for Prometheus Operator
NOTE: Prometheus Operator shown in video is Deprecated. See the git repo for new operator installation and other relevant commands:

Demo Part 1: Setup Prometheus Monitoring with Helm chart for Prometheus Operator (this video)
Demo Part 2: In the 2nd part we will actually configure Prometheus to expose /metrics endpoint and configure Prometheus to scrape it. https://youtu.be/mLPg49b33sA
In the demo I show you the third way. We will easily deploy Prometheus and Grafana using Helm chart for Prometheus Operator and I walk you through the different components, which were created. So that you have a good understanding of what they are and what they do.
Used versions in the demo:
helm version: v3.2.1
prometheus-operator: v0.38.1
In general there are 3 ways to do the setup:
1. Create all the configuration files yourself ‍
This way is pretty inefficient and it's a lot of effort.
2. Using a Kubernetes Operator
In this option you would go and find an operator for Prometheus and deploy it in the cluster using the configuration files of the operator. It is more efficient.
3. Using Helm chart to deploy the Prometheus Operator
This is the most efficient way. Prometheus Operator has a Helm chart that is maintained by the Helm community. You can use this Helm chart to deploy the operator.
So, Helm will do the initial setup. Operator will then manage the running Prometheus setup
