Apigee hybrid collects operations metrics that you can use tomonitor the health of hybrid services, to set up alerts, andso on. Apigee uses the industry-standardPrometheus add-on for metrics collection. Oncecollected, hybrid sends the metrics data to Cloud Operations, at which point youcan use the Cloud Operations console for viewing, searching, andanalyzing metrics and managing alerts.

The following diagram shows the metrics collection process:

As you can see in this diagram, there is one Prometheus serverrunning per cluster, and it can run on any pod in the cluster.Prometheus scrapes application metrics data from all hybridservices and sends the metrics data to Cloud Operations. You can accessmetrics data through the Cloud Operations console.

Metrics collection is enabled by default. To disable it, seeConfigure metrics collection.

For a list of metrics you can use to analyze proxy traffic, seeAvailable metrics.
