## Enable Low Data Mode [#low-data]


The `LowDataMode` option is enabled by default to ingest only the metrics required by our Kubernetes UIs. This mode reduces the amount of data collected, focusing on essential metrics for Kubernetes monitoring. To fetch additional metrics, you can add new pipelines and configuring the appropriate receivers and processors in your [`values.yaml`]() file using the `extraConfig` section.
