Cloud Monitoring documentation

Cloud Monitoring collects metric data and provides tools that let you monitor and visualize how your applications and services are performing.

To collect metrics data from your Compute Engine instances, create an Agent Policy that automatically installs and maintains the Google Cloud Observability agents across your fleet of VMs.

To collect metrics from on-premises and hybrid-cloud systems and applications, we recommend using Bindplane.
