GCE RAM and CPU usage in BigQuery

0
votes

Is there a way to export Google Compute Engine instances logs into BigQuery which will allow you to query the exported logs to get CPU and RAM usage for a selected period using the instance label?

I reviewed already the Default Logging Agent logs doc which shows what Stackdriver Logging collects but RAM and CPU usage isn't mentioned.

I also found this Viewing Activity Logs and Exporting with the Logs Viewer but none of them are relevant to my need.

Thanks in advance

Stackdriver has some specific GCP metrics - no need for custom types (those on the "default logging aggent logs" linked in the question):

They include instance/cpu/utilization and other cpu metrics. I'm not sure why memory is not listed, as it's part of many other services (in the same page) default reporting.
