Setup

The monitoring projects themselves are created by the Terraform project factory. However, some steps have yet to be automated and need to be carried out manually. Specifically:

• The non-prod projects have been added as monitored projects.
• The Google Ops Agent has been deployed on all instances, using Terraform.

Alerting Policies and Uptime Checks

• An alerting policy has been configured, currently sending emails to the org admins group. This is monitoring the URL that points to the external load balancer.
• CPU, memory and disk alerts have been set, based on high thresholds.
• An uptime check has been defined, which alerts if the Ghost service is unavailable.

Custom Dashboard

A custom dashboard has been created, showing some key indicators.
