# Datadog Cluster Agent

This dataset stores metadata about Datadog Cluster Agent instances running in Kubernetes clusters. The Cluster Agent provides a streamlined, centralized approach to collecting cluster-level monitoring data. Each record describes a Cluster Agent instance, including its version, configuration, install method, and enabled features.
