CoreDNS as an EKS add-on exposes the metrics from CoreDNS on port 9153 in the Prometheus format in the kube-dns service. You can use Prometheus, the Amazon CloudWatch agent, or any other compatible system to scrape (collect) these metrics.

For an example scrape configuration that is compatible with both Prometheus and the CloudWatch agent, see CloudWatch agent configuration for Prometheus in the Amazon CloudWatch User Guide.
