Cloud Logging for Go allows you to store,
search, analyze, monitor, and alert on log data and events in Go
applications. We provide a Cloud Logging API client library with standard
library logger support.
To get started with Cloud Logging, see the
Setting up Cloud Logging for Go.
Cloud Monitoring
Cloud Monitoring for Go collects
metrics, events, and metadata from Go applications.
Cloud Monitoring ingests that data and generates insights via dashboards,
charts, and alerts.
Cloud Trace is a distributed tracing system for
Google Cloud that collects latency data from Go applications
and displays it in near real time in the Google Cloud console. To get started with
Cloud Trace, see
Setting up Cloud Trace for Go and
read Distributed tracing for Go
for further insights.
