What is the status on support for Google Cloud Platform?
Since last year, we have been using Dynatrace to monitor our Google Cloud Platform applications and instances. While I know that Dynatrace has actively been working to bring this up to speed, I have not seen any updates or news around this. Looking for the following information...
- Current status? (EAP, BETA, etc.)
- When should we expect Dynatrace to show this in the menu as it does AWS and Azure?
- What are the timelines?
Thanks!

Hi Larry,
Great to hear you're using Dynatrace for monitoring GCP.
The EAP that we currently run is for Container-Optimized OS based GKE clusters. This will go beta in the next few months.
A dedicated menu entry for GCP is on the list but no timeline to share. Which services are you interested in the most?
Even w/o a dedicated entry point for GCP, the OneAgent already covers and detects important GCP related meta information (names, project, instance types, zones...) which will help you with organizing monitored GCP instances and dashboarding.
Please also review the documentation for current GCP support.
Hope this helps,
Alois
Thank you for the update! Very much appreciated. It's just odd to see AWS and Azure there, but no GCP.
I would like an update around the entire GCP space and Dynatrace as well. We have AWS, Azure, etc... I just seems odd that Dynatrace is not making GCP more.... Obvious. We are doing more and more with GCP so I would really like to hear where Dynatrace is going with it. Thanks!
Hello,
Do you have any update about GKE COS support ? We're missing auto-repair option on GKE nodes that is not available on Ubuntu.
