Use SignalFx to monitor Google Cloud Platform (GCP) services through StackDriver monitoring. This integration enables data collection from all GCP web services that report to StackDriver.
Connecting to GCP lets you take advantage of SignalFx’s extensive GCP support.
- SignalFx can sync metadata about your GCP hosts to enrich metrics reported by StackDriver or the SignalFx collectd agent.
- SignalFx provides built-in dashboards for many GCP services that report to StackDriver, such as Google Compute Engine and Google Cloud Datastore.
Before you begin, you must be an administrator of your SignalFx account.
To connect SignalFx to GCP, you must:
- Create a new GCP project service account key for SignalFx to use.
- Specify the services to monitor in SignalFx.
For detailed instructions, see Connect to Google Cloud Platform.
See our detailed GCP integration guide for more information.
For more information about the metrics emitted by GCP StackDriver, see the documentation for individual services.
