@Kappakayala, this is a task for the K8s work.

The prometheus-statsd-exporter container and configuration is already deployed as a side-car for a number of kubernetes services:

deployment-charts/charts on  master [$?⇡] 
❯ git grep statsd-exporter | cut -d/ -f1 | sort -u
apertium
api-gateway
blubberoid
changeprop
developer-portal
eventstreams
linkrecommendation
machinetranslation
mediawiki-dev
miscweb
mobileapps
recommendation-api
shellbox
termbox
thumbor
toolhub
wikifeeds

I think the best path forward would be to extract this repeated deployment to a sextant module (like we do for lamp or ingress), and use that in the mediawiki chart and all others.
@Joe opinions?

@Clement_Goubert yes that is my plan. I planned on picking up the task next week after the switchover dust settled and we have the new k8s nodes in rotation.

When you have your code in core, and we have merged the above patches, we can start testing your code specifically on k8s, first on the debug cluster, then everywhere.
