Cloud Monitoring collects metrics, events, and metadata from Google Cloud, Amazon Web Services (AWS), synthetic monitors, and application instrumentation. Cloud Monitoring ingests that data and generates insights with dashboards, charts, and alerts.

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.
