Gcloud monitoring with prometheus

Hi just created a new kubernetes cluster (in google cloud) and monitoring for that with google preconfigured solutions Prometheus and Grafana (as click and deploy).
This was installed and working in selected Cloud. But we have also another clouds created in google cloud. My question is, how to monitor other clouds in kubernetes or add it do prometheus? Basically how to apply all of this to whole kubernetes. Does anybody has an experience with that ?
thank you so much for help

Do you mean monitoring a different kubernetes cluster from the kubernetes cluster where you have prometheus + grafana installed?

yes, exactly. is that possible ?

It is possible but it is not ideal. You have to make sure prometheus can access the pods running in the other application to scrape the metrics. One of the main advantages of prometheus on kubernetes is that you can access the kubernetes REST api and it can discover the pods itself. Sadly you can only specify one API server endpoint. So for the other cluster you will have to manually add the scrape configs, and make sure you expose the prometheus metrics accross the boundary.

Unless you expose the prometheus instance to the other kubernetes cluster, i.e. allow external applications to access prometheus from the outside world. But the better questions is, do you really need two kubernetes clusters?
