What’s new with Google Data Cloud

August 31 - September 4 Stateful processing is available in BigQuery continuous queries in PreviewStateful operations significantly expand what’s possible with BigQuery continuous queries. This feature allows users to leverage functions like JOINs, aggregations, and windowing functions directly in their streaming queries. Now you can calculate metrics over time (for example, a 30-minute average) to power your downstream applications and AI agents with much richer, real-time signals.Try out our feature here and share your feedback with bq-continuous-queries-feedback@google.com! Synthetic data generator tool is available for Managed Service for KafkaYou’ve launched your first Kafka cluster. Now what? The next thing to do is to produce some data to the cluster, but that involves modifying a client application somewhere or spinning up a virtual machine. The synthetic data generator tool, now generally available, can start sending mock data to your cluster in 3 clicks, and will get data streaming into your cluster in less than two minutes. The perfect utility for those moments you just want to test your cluster and new features. Try our quickstart today! Dataflow pipeline updates are faster & more flexibleDataflow pipeline updates can now stop-and-replace pipelines, a major addition to the existing in-place-update feature.
