## Status
The container metrics calls are added to CRI in Kubernetes 1.7, but Kubelet does not
yet use it to gather metrics from the runtime. We plan to enable Kubelet to
optionally consume the container metrics from the API in 1.8.
The container metrics calls were added to CRI in Kubernetes 1.7, but Kubelet did not
yet use it to gather metrics from the runtime. In Kubernetes 1.8, Kubelet was
given the option to [consume the container metrics using CRI
stats](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/51557). See the
`pkg/kubelet/cadvisor.go#UsingLegacyCadvisorStats`
[function](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/blob/master/pkg/kubelet/cadvisor/util.go#L73)
for more information on how Kubelet determines the proper metrics source.
