Requirements

  1. Cloud Billing: Export billing and pricing data to bigquery (Refer to the Environment Setup section).

  2. Cloud Monitoring: Metrics are automatically available through Cloud Monitoring. However, memory metrics (e.g., for Compute Engine, GKE) are not available by default. To enable them, you must install the Ops Agent on your VM instances or GKE nodes.

  3. Data Extraction: Automatically triggered using Cloud run functions.

  4. Data Storage and Transformation: The backend server that runs on GCE transforms and stores data in Cloud SQL(PostgreSQL).

  5. Environment Configuration: GCP project ID and IAM role (Read-only policy) would be required for the deployment of the product.
