Abstract types
BucketOptions
A Distribution may optionally contain a histogram of the values in the population. The histogram is given in bucket_counts
as counts of values that fall into one of a sequence of non-overlapping buckets. The sequence of buckets
is described by bucket_options
.
A bucket specifies an inclusive lower bound and exclusive upper bound for the values that are counted for that bucket. The upper bound of a bucket is strictly greater than the lower bound.
The sequence of N buckets for a Distribution consists of an underflow bucket (number 0), zero or more finite buckets (number 1 through N - 2) and an overflow bucket (number N - 1). The buckets are contiguous: the lower bound of bucket i (i > 0) is the same as the upper bound of bucket i - 1. The buckets span the whole range of finite values: lower bound of the underflow bucket is -infinity and the upper bound of the overflow bucket is +infinity. The finite buckets are so-called because both bounds are finite.
BucketOptions
describes bucket boundaries in one of three ways. Two describe the boundaries by giving parameters for a formula to generate boundaries and one gives the bucket boundaries explicitly.
If bucket_boundaries
is not given, then no bucket_counts
may be given.
Properties
Parameter |
|
---|---|
linearBuckets |
Object The linear bucket. This object should have the same structure as Linear |
exponentialBuckets |
Object The exponential buckets. This object should have the same structure as Exponential |
explicitBuckets |
Object The explicit buckets. This object should have the same structure as Explicit |
Distribution
Distribution contains summary statistics for a population of values and, optionally, a histogram representing the distribution of those values across a specified set of histogram buckets.
The summary statistics are the count, mean, sum of the squared deviation from the mean, the minimum, and the maximum of the set of population of values.
The histogram is based on a sequence of buckets and gives a count of values that fall into each bucket. The boundaries of the buckets are given either explicitly or by specifying parameters for a method of computing them (buckets of fixed width or buckets of exponentially increasing width).
Although it is not forbidden, it is generally a bad idea to include non-finite values (infinities or NaNs) in the population of values, as this will render the mean
and sum_of_squared_deviation
fields meaningless.
Properties
Parameter |
|
---|---|
count |
number The number of values in the population. Must be non-negative. |
mean |
number The arithmetic mean of the values in the population. If |
sumOfSquaredDeviation |

bucketCounts |
Array of number If Bucket counts are given in order under the numbering scheme described above (the underflow bucket has number 0; the finite buckets, if any, have numbers 1 through N-2; the overflow bucket has number N-1). The size of Any suffix of trailing zero bucket_count fields may be omitted. |
Explicit
A set of buckets with arbitrary widths.
Defines size(bounds) + 1
(= N) buckets with these boundaries for bucket i:
Upper bound (0 <= i < N-1): bounds[i] Lower bound (1 <= i < N); bounds[i - 1]
There must be at least one element in bounds
. If bounds
has only one element, there are no finite buckets, and that single element is the common boundary of the overflow and underflow buckets.

Array of number The values must be monotonically increasing. |
Exponential
Specify a sequence of buckets that have a width that is proportional to the value of the lower bound. Each bucket represents a constant relative uncertainty on a specific value in the bucket.

Upper bound (0 <= i < N-1): scale (growth_factor ^ i). Lower bound (1 <= i < N): scale (growth_factor ^ (i - 1)).

Properties
Parameter |

---|---|
name |
string
The resource name of the metric descriptor. Depending on the implementation, the name typically includes: (1) the parent resource name that defines the scope of the metric type or of its data; and (2) the metric's URL-encoded
type, which also appears in the

MonitoredResource
An object representing a resource that can be used for monitoring, logging, billing, or other purposes. Examples include virtual machine instances, databases, and storage devices such as disks. The type
field identifies a
MonitoredResourceDescriptor object that describes the resource's schema. Information in the labels
field identifies the actual resource and its attributes according to the schema. For example, a particular Compute Engine
VM instance could be represented by the following object, because the MonitoredResourceDescriptor for "gce_instance"
has labels
"instance_id"
and "zone"
:
{ "type": "gce_instance",
"labels": { "instance_id": "12345678901234",
"zone": "us-central1-a" }}
Properties
Parameter |

type |
string Required. The monitored resource type. This field must match the |
labels |
Object with string properties Required. Values for all of the labels listed in the associated monitored resource descriptor. For example, Cloud SQL databases use the labels
|
MonitoredResourceDescriptor
An object that describes the schema of a MonitoredResource object using a type name and a set of labels. For example, the monitored resource descriptor for Google Compute Engine VM instances has a type of
"gce_instance"
and specifies the use of the labels "instance_id"
and
"zone"
to identify particular VM instances.
Different APIs can support different monitored resource types. APIs generally provide a list
method that returns the monitored resource descriptors used by the API.
