## Metrics Server

[Metrics Server](https://github.com/kubernetes-incubator/metrics-server) is a cluster-wide aggregator of resource usage data.
Starting from Kubernetes 1.8 it's deployed by default in clusters created by `kube-up.sh` script
It is deployed by default in clusters created by `kube-up.sh` script
as a Deployment object. If you use a different Kubernetes setup mechanism you can deploy it using the provided
[deployment yamls](https://github.com/kubernetes-incubator/metrics-server/tree/master/deploy).
It's supported in Kubernetes 1.7+ (see details below).

Metric server collects metrics from the Summary API, exposed by [Kubelet](/docs/admin/kubelet/) on each node.

Metrics Server registered in the main API server through
[Kubernetes aggregator](/docs/concepts/api-extension/apiserver-aggregation/),
which was introduced in Kubernetes 1.7.
[Kubernetes aggregator](/docs/concepts/api-extension/apiserver-aggregation/).

Learn more about the metrics server in [the design doc](https://github.com/kubernetes/community/blob/master/contributors/design-proposals/instrumentation/metrics-server.md).
