## StackDriver monitoring
## Stackdriver monitoring
[Stackdriver Monitoring](https://cloud.google.com/monitoring/docs/) is used to
instrument internal state within the Nomulus internal environment. This is
broadly called white-box monitoring. Currently, EPP and DNS are instrumented.
The metrics monitored are as follows:
* `/custom/epp/requests` -- A count of EPP requests, described by command
name, client id, and return status code.
* `/custom/epp/processing_time` -- A
[Distribution](https://cloud.google.com/monitoring/api/ref_v3/rest/v3/TypedValue#Distribution)
representing the processing time for EPP requests, described by command
name, client id, and retujrn status code.
* `/custom/dns/publish_domain_requests` -- A count of publish domain requests,
described by the target TLD and the return status code from the underlying
DNS implementation.
* `/custom/dns/publish_host_requests` -- A count of publish host requests,
described by the target TLD and the return status code from the underlying
DNS implementation.
Follow the guide to [set up a Stackdriver
account](https://cloud.google.com/monitoring/accounts/guide) and associate it
with the GCP project containing the Nomulus App Engine app. Once the two have
been linked, monitoring will start automatically. For now, because the
visualization of custom metrics in Stackdriver is embryronic, you can retrieve
and visualize the collected metrics with a script, as described in the guide on
[Reading Time
Series](https://cloud.google.com/monitoring/custom-metrics/reading-metrics) and
the [custom metric code
sample](https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/python-docs-samples/blob/master/monitoring/api/v3/custom_metric.py).
In addition to the included white-box monitoring, black-box monitoring should be
set up to exercise the functionality of the registry platform as a user would
see it. This monitoring should, for example, create a new domain name every few
minutes via EPP and then verify that the domain exists in DNS and WHOIS. For
now, no black-box monitoring implementation is provided with the Nomulus
platform.
