cloud monitoring high spike in billing

[vishal5]

We have noticed an unexpected and unusually high amount charged for the Cloud Monitoring service since last 4 to 5 days. We also checked previous months' and day-by-day billing, and there was no charge for cloud monitoring. The cloud monitoring service charges us more than $100 per day, and we have not changed or added any new services. It would be great if someone could help me understand this.

Hi @vishal5,

Welcome to the Google Cloud Community!

recommend contacting Google Cloud Support directly so they can take a look at the backend to check for a possible bug. There was an update in Cloud Monitoring last February 20, 2024, which might have caused the issue.

Thank you.
