Features
Bigtable is a key-value and wide-column store, ideal for fast access to structured, semi-structured, or unstructured data. This makes latency-sensitive workloads like personalization a perfect fit for Bigtable. However its distributed counters, high read and write throughput per dollar makes it also a great fit for clickstream and IoT use cases, and even batch analytics for high-performance computing (HPC) applications, including training ML models.
Bigtable decouples compute resources from data storage, which makes it possible to transparently adjust processing resources. Each additional node can process reads and writes equally well, providing effortless horizontal scalability. Bigtable optimizes performance by automatically scaling resources to adapt to server traffic, handling the sharding, replication, and query processing.
Bigtable lets your data model evolve organically. Store anything from scalars, JSON, Protocol Buffers, Avro, Arrow to embeddings, images, and dynamically add/remove new columns as needed. Deliver low-latency serving or high-performance batch analytics over raw, unstructured data in a single database.
Apps backed by Bigtable can deliver low-latency reads and writes with globally distributed multi-primary configurations, no matter where your users may be. Zonal instances are great for cost savings and can be seamlessly scaled up to multi-region deployments with automatic replication. When running a multi-region instance, your database is protected against a regional failure and offers industry-leading 99.999% availability.
Live migrations enable faster and simpler onboarding by ensuring accurate data migration with reduced effort. HBase Bigtable replication library allows for no-downtime live migrations with import and validation tools to easily load HBase snapshots into Bigtable while Dataflow templates simplify migrations from Cassandra to Bigtable.
Bigtable Data Boost enables users to run analytical queries, batch ETL processes, train ML models or export data faster without affecting transactional workloads. Data Boost does not require capacity planning or management. It allows directly querying data stored in Google’s distributed storage system, Colossus using on-demand capacity letting users easily handle mixed workloads and share data worry-free.
Easily connect to the open source ecosystem with the Apache HBase API. Build data-driven applications faster with seamless integrations with Apache Spark, Hadoop, GKE, Dataflow, Dataproc, Vertex AI Vector Search, and BigQuery. Meet development teams where they are with SQL and client libraries for Java, Go, Python, C#, Node.js, PHP, Ruby, C++, HBase and integration with LangChain.
No IOPS charges, no cost for taking or restoring backups, no disproportionate read/write pricing to impact your budget as your workloads evolve.
Reduce operational costs and improve reliability for any database size. Replication and maintenance are automatic and built-in with zero downtime.
Use Bigtable change streams to capture change data from Bigtable databases and integrate it with other systems for analytics, event triggering, and compliance.
Customer-managed encryption keys (CMEK) with Cloud External Key Manager support, IAM integration for access and controls, support for VPC-SC, Access Transparency, Access Approval and comprehensive audit logging help ensure your data is protected and complies with regulations. Fine-grained access control lets you authorize access at table, column, or row level.
Monitor performance of Bigtable databases with server-side metrics. Analyze usage patterns with Key Visualizer interactive monitoring tool. Use query stats, table stats, and the hot tablets tool for troubleshooting query performance issues and quickly diagnose latency issues with client-side monitoring.
Take instant, incremental backups of your database cost-effectively and restore on demand. Store backups in different regions for additional resilience, easily restore between instances, or projects for test versus production scenarios.
Use the Bigtable to Vertex AI Vector Search template to index data in your Bigtable database with Vertex AI to perform a similarity search over vector embeddings with Vertex AI Vector Search.
Easily build generative AI applications that are more accurate, transparent, and reliable with built-in kNN nearest neighbor vector search (in preview) and LangChain integration. Visit the GitHub repository to learn more.
How It Works
Bigtable instances provide compute and storage in one or more regions. Each Bigtable cluster can receive both reads and writes. Data is automatically "split" for scalability and replicated between clusters asynchronously. A distributed clock called TrueTime guarantees transactions are correctly ordered.

FAQ
Bigtable is a NoSQL database service, specifically a key-value store that allows for very wide tables with tens of thousands of columns, hence also referred to as a wide-column database or a distributed multi-dimensional map. It is a NoSQL database in the "Not only SQL" sense, rather than "zero SQL".
Bigtable is most similar to popular open source projects it inspired, such as Apache HBase and Cassandra, and hence is the most common destination for customers that deal with large data volumes looking for a high-performance, cost-effective, fully managed NoSQL database solution on Google Cloud.
In addition to its Key-Value APIs, Bigtable also supports SQL queries in three different ways:
Bigtable offers migration tooling that enables faster and simpler onboarding by ensuring accurate data migration with reduced effort. HBase Bigtable replication library allows for no-downtime live migrations with import and validation tools to easily load HBase snapshots into Bigtable while Dataflow templates simplify migrations from Cassandra to Bigtable.
Bigtable storage is billed per GB used similar to a serverless model. Bigtable also offers linear horizontal scaling and can automatically scale up and down compute resources in response to demand fluctuations. Hence it doesn’t require a long term capacity commitment for storage or compute. However, pricing for low-latency compute is capacity-based and billed per node, not per request where each node can serve up to 17K requests per second. This makes Bigtable price more favorable for larger workloads but less ideal for small applications, which may be more suitable for Google Cloud databases such as Firestore.
For batch data processing Bigtable offers Data Boost, which bills in Serverless Processing Units (SPU).
