GCP Status Exporter

An exporter to get metrics for availability status of GCP services and observe the incident impacts in GCP environments.

Note: This is a work in progress. Contributions are welcome.

Approach

• GCP incidents older than 30 days are discarded to keep the metrics relevant.
• GCP service status is collected from Google Cloud Status Dashboard's incident history

Components

• Opentelemetry library is used for creating metrics.
• logrus for structured logging.
• cobra for creating a CLI application.

Metrics
