GKE Observability Skill

This skill provides workflows for ensuring your GKE cluster and workloads have adequate observability for production use.

Workflows

1. Audit Cluster Observability

Check if Cloud Logging and Cloud Monitoring are enabled on the cluster.

Command:

gcloud container clusters describe <cluster-name> --region <region> --project <project-id> --format="json(loggingConfig, monitoringConfig)"

Look for loggingService and monitoringService to be set to something other than none (usually logging.googleapis.com/kubernetes and monitoring.googleapis.com/kubernetes).

2. Enable Managed Service for Prometheus
