# GitLab-defined metrics dashboards **(FREE)**
2020-10-24 23:57:45 +05:30
GitLab provides some dashboards out-of-the-box for any project with
[Prometheus available ](../../../user/project/integrations/prometheus.md ). You can
[duplicate these GitLab-defined dashboards ](index.md#duplicate-a-gitlab-defined-dashboard ):
- [Overview dashboard ](#overview-dashboard ).
- [Kubernetes pod health dashboard ](#kubernetes-pod-health-dashboard ).
To learn about the components of a dashboard, read
[Metrics dashboard for your CI/CD environment ](../index.md ).
## Overview dashboard
This dashboard is the default metrics dashboard. It displays a large number of
metrics about the [deployed application ](../index.md#configure-prometheus-to-gather-metrics ).

## Kubernetes pod health dashboard
This dashboard requires Kubernetes v1.14 or higher, due to the
[change in metric labels ](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/69099 )
in Kubernetes 1.14.
This dashboard displays CPU, memory, network and disk metrics for the pods in your
[connected K8s cluster ](../../../user/project/clusters/index.md ). It provides a
[variable selector ](templating_variables.md#metric_label_values-variable-type )
at the top of the dashboard to select which pod's metrics to display.
