Google Cloud Compute Engine is an Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) offering that provides a scalable number of virtual machines (VMs) to serve as large compute clusters.
Go to the Monitors Category View by clicking the Monitors tab. Click on the Compute Engine instance available under Google Cloud Platform in the Cloud Apps section. Displayed is the Google Cloud Compute Engine bulk configuration view distributed into three tabs:
Cloud monitoring software like Applications Manager provide complete visibility into your Google Cloud Compute Engine environments altogether in a single window based on the following tabs:
