Components

Component	Description	Default
whizard-telemetry-apiserver	Common APIServer for all observability extensions	1 replica
wiz-telemetry-console	Web console for WizTelemetry	1 replica

Dependencies

The WizTelemetry Platform Service does not have hard dependencies on other components. All APIs can be enabled/disabled based on the deployed extensions:

• Optional: OpenSearch - Required only when enabling logging, auditing, events, notification history, or traffic APIs
• Optional: Prometheus - Required only when enabling monitoring API
• Optional: Notification Manager - Required only when enabling notification API
• Optional: KubeSphere Observability (Whizard) - Required only when enabling global observability

Configuration should be added incrementally as you deploy additional observability extensions (e.g., WhizardLogging, WhizardAuditing, WhizardEvents, WhizardNotification).
