Google Cloud Monitoring (aka Stackdriver Monitoring) is a native GCP solution for service monitoring. The tool lets users create charts, dashboards, alerts and notifications based on built-in or custom metrics.

GCP/Stackdriver Monitoring collects metrics, events, and metadata from Google Cloud (), Amazon Web Services (), hosted uptime probes, and application instrumentation. Using the Blue Medora BindPlane service, you can also collect this data from over 150 common application components, on-premise systems, and hybrid cloud systems.
