EKS [Request]: Unable to collect the coredns metrics in datadog

Hello,

We have coredns configured as a default eks-componemt for us using the **kube-dns** service in **kube-system** namespace . We are facing issues while. trying to integrate `coredns` with `Datadog` to collect the Coredns Metrics.

It seems we don’t have the metric port **9153** at the `kube-dns` at service level , which is present for the `coredns` pod for which it is not able to fetch the metrics and /metrics is not exposed at the service level to enable the prometheus plugin as per the docs:

https://www.datadoghq.com/blog/monitor-coredns-with-datadog/

https://github.com/DataDog/integrations-core/blob/master/coredns/datadog_checks/coredns/data/auto_conf.yaml

Please let me know , if we have a fix in this situation , do we need to upgrade our EKS version or do a manual patch to include the port configuration at service level.

**Current EKS version: 1.14 and Platform version: eks.8**

Regards,
Uday

Start by reviewing the kube-dns Service in the kube-system namespace and the CoreDNS pod configuration for metrics port 9153. Compare the EKS 1.14 behavior with the linked Datadog CoreDNS integration documentation and auto_conf.yaml. Done means determining whether the service requires a port configuration or an EKS upgrade and documenting the supported fix.
