Java Monitoring Client Library - A java idiomatic monitoring client for collecting metrics

This library provides an API that is powerful and java idiomatic for configuring and publishing application metrics. A reference implementation using Stackdriver Monitoring API v3 is included, but other monitoring backend implementations can also be used. Most of other monitoring libraries available are low-level and are tied directly to the backend. This library provides type safety, retry logic and an backend-agnostic approach to Java metrics instrumentation.
