It documents and never acts. Nothing here runs a command, holds a credential, or changes anything in a project. **Start at `_boot/START.md`.** | Family | Services | Status | |---|---|---| | Identity and access | IAM, Workload Identity Federation (external and GKE), Secret Manager, Cloud KMS | Released 2026-10-21 | | Infrastructure as code | Terraform, Infrastructure Manager, Deployment Manager (**out of support**), Config Connector | Released 2026-10-21 | | Storage | Cloud Storage, Hyperdisk and Persistent Disk, Filestore | Released 2026-10-21 | | Compute | Compute Engine, GKE (Autopilot and Standard), Cloud Run, Cloud Run functions | Released 2026-10-21 | | Networking | VPC (global), Cloud Load Balancing, Cloud NAT, Cloud Armor, Private Service Connect | Released 2026-10-21 | | Databases | Cloud SQL, AlloyDB, Spanner, Firestore, Bigtable | Released 2026-10-21 | | Messaging | Pub/Sub, Cloud Tasks, Eventarc | Released 2026-10-21 | | Data and analytics | BigQuery, Dataflow, Dataproc (Managed Service for Apache Spark) | Released 2026-10-21 | | Observability | Cloud Logging, Cloud Monitoring, Cloud Trace | Released 2026-10-21 | | Migration | Migration Center, Migrate to Virtual Machines, Database Migration Service, Storage Transfer Service | Released 2026-10-21 | ## What this hub has that a service comparison table does not A **parity guide per family** (`guides/parity/.md`) and one method guide, **`guides/parity-and-migration-method.md`**. The published cross-cloud tables map names; these map the **documented differences that change an estimate** — naming, quota model, pricing *dimension*, regional model and IAM model — plus the occasional difference that is a **correctness risk** rather than a cost. Use it with cuppy's `aws` and `azure` hubs. The method guide says how. The full index, with the identity each call should be made as: `reference/overview/services-and-identities.md`. ## The rules this hub is built on 1. **Every fact comes from a Google Cloud page fetched on 2026-10-21**, cited in that document's `provenance` with the URL, the read date and which fact it carries. Counterpart claims about AWS or Azure cite an AWS or Microsoft page the same way. 2. **No adjustable quota and no price is ever typed here.** The document names the call that reads the live value. A number the vendor states as a fixed *system limit* is written down, with the page that calls it fixed. 3. **Absences are stated, not filled in.** "The page does not say" appears a dozen times in this hub on purpose. Guessing is the failure mode a documentation hub exists to prevent. 4. **Keyless, identity-based authentication first**, everywhere. No real credential appears in any example. 5. **This hub assumes the global Google Cloud.** Sovereign, air-gapped and Distributed Cloud deployments are out of scope. Release notes, including everything this release does **not** cover: `changelog/2026-10-21-release-notes.md`.
