contents Applications requiring real-time processing of large volumes of data have been the main driver for rethinking the traditional cloud, giving rise to novel cloud models. Distributed cloud (DC) is a model that allows users to dynamically create and dispose of strategically located ad-hoc clouds that contain resources best tailored to their needs. It is essential for this model to provide a high degree of observability for it to be viable in real-world scenarios. In this paper, we present the design and implementation of a monitoring system that collects metrics from DCs and makes them accessible to diverse clients. Agents running on nodes are responsible for collecting machine-, container-, and application-level metrics. During the health-check protocol, that data is transferred from the node to the DC's control plane running inside the cloud. There, it is persisted and served via multiple APIs, including a streaming API. Moreover, node metrics are aggregated for every DC in order to provide a more comprehensive view of the system's state.
