Cloud Bigtable Beta
Bigger than a data warehouse, fast enough for real-time access, and less expensive than running virtual machines.
The world-renowned database that powers Google is now available to you worldwide.
Overview
Google Cloud Bigtable offers you a fast, fully managed, massively scalable NoSQL database service that's ideal for web, mobile, and Internet of Things applications requiring terabytes to petabytes of data. Unlike comparable market offerings, Cloud Bigtable doesn't require you to sacrifice speed, scale, or cost efficiency when your applications grow. Cloud Bigtable has been battle-tested at Google for more than 10 years—it's the database driving major applications such as Google Analytics and Gmail.
Features
Fully Managed
Cloud Bigtable is a high-availability, fully managed NoSQL database service. Google's experienced engineers work around the clock to keep your Cloud Bigtable servers up and running. With Cloud Bigtable, you'll spend more time developing valuable applications and less time architecting solutions that scale.
Fully Integrated
Because Cloud Bigtable is accessed through the HBase API, it is natively integrated with the existing big data and Hadoop ecosystems.
Fast and Highly Scalable
Cloud Bigtable scales to hundreds of petabytes and millions of reads and writes per second while maintaining single-digit millisecond latencies. No workload is too large to handle.
Industry Standard
Cloud Bigtable is offered through the standard Apache HBase open source API. You can transition to Cloud Bigtable from privately managed Apache HBase instances, and it's easy to export Cloud Bigtable data to standard formats.
Protected
Cloud Bigtable is built with a replicated storage strategy. All data is encrypted both in-flight and at rest. Your data is protected by stronger role-based ACLs that you configure.
Proven
Cloud Bigtable has been used by Google for 10+ years for its largest applications, including search, Gmail, Google Maps, Google Earth, YouTube, and many others.
