Bigtable

Feature

Bigtable has a unified, customizable system insights dashboard. This dashboard includes predefined metrics and other Google Cloud metrics. This feature is generally available (GA). For more information, see Customize the system insights dashboard.

Carbon Footprint

Fixed

We have corrected the issue resulting in incomplete Cloud Run emissions data for November and December 2025. Customers who used Cloud Run during this period can now access the corrected data.

Action Required: To see the corrected Cloud Run emissions data, schedule a manual data backfill for November and December 2025. Note that there is a half-month lag of our data release. For example, to backfill November and December 2025 data, run the backfill for December 15, 2025 and January 15, 2026, which will update the data for November and December 2025 in your BigQuery table.
