# Cluster integrations **(FREE)**
GitLab provides several ways to integrate applications to your
Kubernetes cluster.
To enable cluster integrations, first add a Kubernetes cluster to a GitLab
[project](../project/clusters/add_remove_clusters.md) or [group](../group/clusters/index.md#group-level-kubernetes-clusters).
## Prometheus cluster integration
> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/merge_requests/55244) in GitLab 13.11.
You can integrate your Kubernetes cluster with
[Prometheus](https://prometheus.io/) for monitoring key metrics of your
apps directly from the GitLab UI.
Once enabled, you will see metrics from services available in the
[metrics library](../project/integrations/prometheus_library/index.md).
Prerequisites:
To benefit from this integration, you must have Prometheus
installed in your cluster with the following requirements:
1. Prometheus must be installed inside the `gitlab-managed-apps` namespace.
1. The `Service` resource for Prometheus must be named `prometheus-prometheus-server`.
You can use the following commands to install Prometheus to meet the requirements for cluster integrations:
```shell
# Create the require Kubernetes namespace
kubectl create ns gitlab-managed-apps
# Download Helm chart values that is compatible with the requirements above.
# You should substitute the tag that corresponds to the GitLab version in the url
# - https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/raw/<tag>/vendor/prometheus/values.yaml
#
wget https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/raw/v13.9.0-ee/vendor/prometheus/values.yaml
# Add the Prometheus community helm repo
helm repo add prometheus-community https://prometheus-community.github.io/helm-charts
# Install Prometheus
helm install prometheus prometheus-community/prometheus -n gitlab-managed-apps --values values.yaml
```
Alternatively, you can use your preferred installation method to install
Prometheus as long as you meet the requirements above.
### Enable Prometheus integration for your cluster
To enable the Prometheus integration for your cluster:
1. Go to the cluster's page:
- For a [project-level cluster](../project/clusters/index.md), navigate to your project's
**Operations > Kubernetes**.
- For a [group-level cluster](../group/clusters/index.md), navigate to your group's
**Kubernetes** page.
1. Select the **Integrations** tab.
1. Check the **Enable Prometheus integration** checkbox.
1. Click **Save changes**.
1. Go to the **Health** tab to see your cluster's metrics.
