What should you do?

Your team is designing a new application for deployment into Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE). You need to set up monitoring to collect and aggregate various application-level metrics in a centralized location. You want to use Google Cloud Platform services while minimizing the amount of work required to set up monitoring .

What should you do?
A . Publish various metrics from the application directly to the Slackdriver Monitoring API, and then observe these custom metrics in Stackdriver.
B . Install the Cloud Pub/Sub client libraries, push various metrics from the application to various topics, and then observe the aggregated metrics in Stackdriver.
C . Install the OpenTelemetry client libraries in the application, configure Stackdriver as the export destination for the metrics, and then observe the application’s metrics in Stackdriver.
D . Emit all metrics in the form of application-specific log messages, pass these messages from the containers to the Stackdriver logging collector, and then observe metrics in Stackdriver.

Answer: A

Your application can report a custom metric to Cloud Monitoring. You can configure Kubernetes to respond to these metrics and scale your workload automatically. For example, you can scale your application based on metrics such as queries per second, writes per second, network performance, latency when communicating with a different application, or other metrics that make sense for your workload. https://cloud.google.com/kubernetes-engine/docs/concepts/custom-and-external-metrics
