Google Cloud Platform gke metricset

edit

This functionality is in beta and is subject to change. The design and code is less mature than official GA features and is being provided as-is with no warranties. Beta features are not subject to the support SLA of official GA features.

gke metricset is designed for collecting metrics from Google Kubernetes Engine. Google Cloud Monitoring supports Google Kubernetes Engine metrics, as listed in Google Cloud Monitoring Kubernetes metrics.

This metricset collects all GA Kubernetes metrics from Google Cloud Monitoring APIs. It leverages under the hood the metrics metricset.

We recommend users to define period: 1m for this metricset because in Google Cloud, GKE monitoring metrics are sampled every 60 seconds. Some of the metrics have an ingest delay up to 240 seconds.
