# Goldilocks
Kubernetes resource recommendation dashboard powered by VPA:
- **Visual dashboard**: User-friendly web interface for VPA recommendations
- **Automatic VPA management**: Creates and manages VPA resources per namespace
- **Multi-workload view**: See all workload recommendations in one place
- **Quality of Service guidance**: Recommendations for Guaranteed, Burstable, and BestEffort QoS classes
- **OAuth2 authentication**: Keycloak integration for secure access
- **Namespace-based monitoring**: Explicit opt-in via labels
## Prerequisites
- Kubernetes cluster (k3s)
- VPA (Vertical Pod Autoscaler) installed
- Keycloak (for OAuth2 authentication)
Install VPA first:
```bash
just vpa::install
```
## Installation
```bash
just goldilocks::install
```
You will be prompted for:
1. **Goldilocks host (FQDN)**: e.g., `goldilocks.example.com`
2. **OAuth2 Proxy setup**: Optional Keycloak authentication
### What Gets Installed
- Goldilocks controller (creates VPA resources)
- Goldilocks dashboard (web UI)
- OAuth2 Proxy (for authentication)
- IngressRoute (Traefik ingress)
## Access
Access the dashboard at `https://your-goldilocks-host/`
Authentication is handled via OAuth2 Proxy with Keycloak.
## Configuration
Environment variables (set in `.env.local` or override):
```bash
GOLDILOCKS_NAMESPACE=goldilocks # Goldilocks namespace
GOLDILOCKS_HOST=goldilocks.example.com # Dashboard FQDN
VPA_NAMESPACE=vpa # VPA namespace
KEYCLOAK_REALM=buunstack # Keycloak realm
```
## Usage
### Enable Monitoring for a Namespace
Goldilocks uses namespace labels to determine which namespaces to monitor:
```bash
just goldilocks::enable-namespace <namespace>
```
Or directly with kubectl:
```bash
kubectl label namespace <namespace> goldilocks.fairwinds.com/enabled=true
```
### Disable Monitoring for a Namespace
```bash
just goldilocks::disable-namespace <namespace>
```
### View Monitored Namespaces
```bash
kubectl get namespaces -l goldilocks.fairwinds.com/enabled=true
```
### Check Status
```bash
just goldilocks::status
```
### View Logs
```bash
just goldilocks::logs-controller # Controller logs
just goldilocks::logs-dashboard # Dashboard logs
```
## Dashboard Features
### Recommendation Views
The dashboard shows recommendations for three Quality of Service (QoS) classes:
1. **Guaranteed QoS**: Requests = Limits (highest priority, no overcommit)
2. **Burstable QoS**: Requests < Limits (allows bursting, some overcommit)
3. **BestEffort QoS**: No requests/limits (lowest priority, full overcommit)
### Workload Information
For each workload, the dashboard displays:
- Current resource settings (requests and limits)
- VPA recommendations (based on actual usage)
- Quality of Service class
- Container-level breakdowns
### Applying Recommendations
Goldilocks is read-only and does not modify workloads. To apply recommendations:
1. Review recommendations in the dashboard
2. Manually update your Deployment/StatefulSet manifests
3. Apply changes via kubectl or your CI/CD pipeline
## OAuth2 Proxy Management
### Setup OAuth2 Proxy
If not configured during installation:
```bash
just goldilocks::setup-oauth2-proxy
```
### Remove OAuth2 Proxy
To disable authentication:
```bash
just goldilocks::remove-oauth2-proxy
```
Note: This will make the dashboard publicly accessible. Use port-forward instead:
```bash
just goldilocks::port-forward
```
Then access at `http://localhost:8080`
## Examples
### Monitor Application Namespaces
Enable monitoring for common application namespaces:
```bash
just goldilocks::enable-namespace dagster
just goldilocks::enable-namespace trino
just goldilocks::enable-namespace metabase
just goldilocks::enable-namespace jupyterhub
```
### Bulk Enable Monitoring
Enable monitoring for multiple namespaces at once:
```bash
for ns in dagster trino metabase superset querybook; do
kubectl label namespace $ns goldilocks.fairwinds.com/enabled=true --overwrite
done
```
### Verify VPA Resources Created
After enabling a namespace, Goldilocks automatically creates VPA resources:
```bash
kubectl get vpa -n <namespace>
```
Each workload (Deployment, StatefulSet, etc.) should have a corresponding VPA resource.
## Management
### Port Forward to Dashboard
For local access without OAuth2 Proxy:
```bash
just goldilocks::port-forward
```
Access at `http://localhost:8080`
### Uninstall
```bash
just goldilocks::uninstall
```
This removes:
- OAuth2 Proxy
- Helm release
- VPA resources created by Goldilocks
- Namespace
Note: VPA installation itself is not removed. Uninstall separately if needed:
```bash
just vpa::uninstall
```
## Troubleshooting
### Dashboard Shows "No namespaces are labelled"
No namespaces have monitoring enabled. Label at least one namespace:
```bash
just goldilocks::enable-namespace default
```
### No Recommendations Displayed
VPA needs time to collect metrics and generate recommendations:
- Wait 5-10 minutes after enabling a namespace
- Ensure workloads are actively running
- Verify VPA resources exist: `kubectl get vpa -n <namespace>`
- Check VPA recommender logs: `just vpa::logs-recommender`
### VPA Resources Not Created
Verify Goldilocks controller is running:
```bash
kubectl get pods -n goldilocks -l app.kubernetes.io/component=controller
```
Check controller logs:
```bash
just goldilocks::logs-controller
```
Ensure namespace has the correct label:
```bash
kubectl get namespace <namespace> --show-labels
```
### OAuth2 Proxy Authentication Issues
Verify Keycloak client exists:
```bash
just keycloak::list-clients | grep goldilocks
```
Check OAuth2 Proxy logs:
```bash
kubectl logs -n goldilocks -l app=goldilocks-oauth2-proxy
```
### Dashboard Not Accessible
Check IngressRoute:
```bash
kubectl get ingressroute -n goldilocks
```
Verify OAuth2 Proxy is running:
```bash
kubectl get pods -n goldilocks -l app=goldilocks-oauth2-proxy
```
