My team and I consider using Managed Prometheus for monitoring the Compute Engines in our project. But in the documentation it seems like MP may only be used for monitoring Kubernetes clusters. Is that correct?
Hi,
Yes and no. In fact, MP is a “feature” or extension for Operations stack for GKE and can be used only for GKE and k8s load. However, Standard Prometheus, which can perfectly integrate with Grafana can be also used as a another way to monitor you infra.
