GCP Cloud Storage Metrics

This page lists the Cloud Storage metrics collected by the GCP app.

The table omits the metric type prefixes. For example, the full name of the request_count metric, of type api, is storage.googleapis.com/api/request_count.

API

Metric type prefix: storage.googleapis.com/api/

Metric

Description

request_count

Delta count of API calls, grouped by the API method name and response code.

AUTHN

Metric type prefix: storage.googleapis.com/authn/

Metric

Description

authentication_count

Count of HMAC/RSA signed requests grouped by authentication method and access id.

AUTHZ

Metric type prefix: storage.googleapis.com/authz/

Metric

Description

acl_based_object_access_count

Delta count of requests that result in an object being granted access solely due to object ACLs.

acl_operations_count

Usage of ACL operations broken down by type.

object_specific_acl_mutation_count

Delta count of changes made to object-specific ACLs.

Network

Metric type prefix: storage.googleapis.com/network/

Metric

Description

received_bytes_count

Delta count of bytes received over the network, grouped by the API method name and response code.

sent_bytes_count

Delta count of bytes sent over the network, grouped by the API method name and response code.

Replication

Metric type prefix: storage.googleapis.com/replication/

Metric

Description

missing_rpo_minutes_last_30d

Total number of minutes where the Recovery Point Objective (RPO) was missed, as measured over the most recent 30 days. The metric is delayed by storage.googleapis.com/replication/time_since_metrics_updated.

object_replications_last_30d

Total number of object replications, as measured over the most recent 30 days. The metric can be broken down by whether each object replication was meeting or missing Recovery Point Objective (RPO). The metric is delayed by storage.googleapis.com/replication/time_since_metrics_updated.

time_since_metrics_updated

Seconds since the last time when storage.googleapis.com/replication/* metrics were calculated.

Storage

Metric type prefix: storage.googleapis.com/storage/

Metric

Description

object_count

Total number of objects per bucket, grouped by storage class. This value is measured once per day, and there might be a delay after measuring before the value becomes available in Cloud Monitoring. Once available, the value is repeated at each sampling interval throughout the day. Buckets with no objects in them are not tracked by this metric. For this metric, the sampling period is a reporting period, not a measurement period.

total_byte_seconds

Total daily storage in byte*seconds used by the bucket, grouped by storage class. This value is measured once per day, and there might be a delay after measuring before the value becomes available in Cloud Monitoring. Once available, the value is repeated at each sampling interval throughout the day. Buckets with no objects in them are not tracked by this metric. For this metric, the sampling period is a reporting period, not a measurement period.

total_bytes

Total size of all objects in the bucket, grouped by storage class. This value is measured once per day, and there might be a delay after measuring before the value becomes available in Cloud Monitoring. Once available, the value is repeated at each sampling interval throughout the day. Buckets with no objects in them are not tracked by this metric. For this metric, the sampling period is a reporting period, not a measurement period.
