Cloud Monitor:Monitor an SAE application with Managed Service for Prometheus

Last Updated:Jun 17, 2026

You can use Managed Service for Prometheus to monitor a Serverless App Engine (SAE) application and view metrics such as CPU utilization, memory usage, and network traffic.

Prerequisites

The SAE application to be monitored is running.

Step 1: Integrate SAE monitoring

  1. Integration Center

    netRecvDrop

    Number of dropped received packets.

    netTranDrop

    Number of dropped sent packets.

    netRecvError

    Number of received packets with errors.

    netTranError

    Number of sent packets with errors.

    diskUsed

    Disk usage of the application.

    diskTotal

    Total application disk size.

    diskIopsRead

    Disk read IOPS of the application.

    diskIopsWrite

    Disk write IOPS of the application.

    diskRead

    Disk read I/O throughput of the application.

    diskWrite

    Disk write I/O throughput of the application.

    tcpTotalConn

    Total TCP connections for the application.

    tcpActiveConn

    Active TCP connections for the application.

    tcpInactiveConn

    Inactive TCP connections for the application.

    tcpInuse

    In-use TCP connections for the application.

    tcpTw

    TCP connections in the TIME_WAIT state for the application.

    tcpAlloc

    Allocated TCP connections for the application.

    tcpOrphan

    Orphaned TCP connections for the application.

Step 2: View SAE monitoring data

  1. Integration ManagementIntegration ManagementIntegrated AddonsEnvironment NameView Details

  2. View dashboard names: On the Component Management tab, click SAE in the Addon Type section, and then click Dashboard to view all dashboard names.

  3. View a dashboard: Click the name of a Dashboard to view it.

  4. (Optional) Query data: In the left-side navigation pane of the Grafana dashboard, click Explore. On the Explore page, select a metric (for a list of supported metrics, see Step 1) and its corresponding labels, and then click Run query to view the results.

Step 3: Configure alert rules

Create alert rules based on your business requirements. For more information, see Create a Prometheus alert rule.
