Build responsive applications with consistent, single-digit millisecond latency
Seamlessly scale to match your storage and throughput needs; no downtime during reconfiguration
Easily migrate from Apache HBase to Bigtable with no-downtime, live migrations
Ideal for use cases such as personalization, fraud detection, real-time analytics, and IoT
Ensure high availability with multi-primary replication in up to 8 regions
Benefits
Fast and performant
Use Cloud Bigtable as the storage engine that grows with you from your first gigabyte to petabyte-scale for low-latency applications as well as high-throughput data processing and analytics.
Seamless scaling and replication
Start with a single node per cluster, and scale to hundreds of nodes dynamically supporting peak demand at low latency. Replication also adds high availability and workload isolation for live serving apps.
Key features
Key features
High throughput and low latency at any scale
Bigtable is a key-value and wide-column store, ideal for fast access to very large amounts of structured, semi-structured, or unstructured data with high read and write throughput. Bigtable powers many core Google services such as YouTube, Google Analytics, Search, Ads, Drive, and Maps.
Cluster resizing without downtime
Scale seamlessly from thousands to millions of reads/writes per second. Bigtable throughput can be dynamically adjusted by adding or removing cluster nodes—all without any downtime. Bigtable can also autoscale your cluster based on changes in demand so that you can maintain great performance in the most cost-effective way.
Flexible, automated replication to optimize any workload
Write data once and automatically replicate where needed with eventual consistency—giving you control for high availability and isolation of read and write workloads. No manual steps needed to ensure consistency, repair data, or synchronize writes and deletes. Benefit from a high availability SLA of 99.999% for instances with multi-cluster routing across 3 or more regions (99.9% for single-cluster instances).
Easy migrations from Apache HBase and Cassandra to Bigtable
Live migrations enable faster and simpler migrations from HBase to Bigtable by ensuring accurate data migration, reducing migration effort, and providing a better overall developer experience. HBase Bigtable Replication Library allows for no-downtime live migrations, Import Tool easily loads HBase snapshots into Bigtable, and Validation Tool ensures accurate data migration. Dataflow templates simplify migrations from Cassandra to Bigtable.
Enterprise-grade security and controls
Customer-managed encryption keys (CMEK) with External Key Manager support, IAM integration for access and controls, support for VPC-SC, and comprehensive audit logging help ensure your data is protected and complies with regulations.
