GCP views

GCP views enable you to analyze and manage the capacity of VM instances in your Google infrastructure. They provide an overview of available capacity, utilization, trends, and residual capacity in terms of CPU, memory, and storage utilization for each entity. 

Using the GCP views, you can achieve the following goals:

  • Obtain an at-a-glance view of all VM instances.
  • Drill down into a specific VM instance and track the capacity of it in the Google environment.
  • Identify resources that are at risk of saturation or already saturated.
