You can use exporters in conjunction with Google Cloud Managed Service for Prometheus to ingest metrics from third-party applications or from other components of the Prometheus infrastructure.
This set of documents includes configuration instructions for a number of common exporters. These instructions apply only if you are using managed collection with Managed Service for Prometheus. If you are using self-deployed collection, see the relevant exporter documentation for information about where to find the exporter's source repository.
This document is not an exhaustive list of the exporters supported by Managed Service for Prometheus. You can configure managed collection to scrape any exporter that you can set up. This list provides instructions for some of the most commonly used exporters.
Application exporters
You can use application exporters with Managed Service for Prometheus to collect metrics from third-party applications. These exporters are typically set up as standalone workloads or as sidecars to your existing GKE deployments.

Infrastructure exporters
The documents in this section contain example YAML manifests and other
configuration that you can use to install and scrape infrastructure
exporters.
For example, to replicate the experience of using the
kube-prometheus repository,
you can set up the Kube State Metrics and
Node Exporter exporters, and configure managed
collection to scrape the cAdvisor/Kubelet
metrics.
