Deep Google Cloud Storage Visibility
We are excited to share the release of our new Google Cloud Storage Visibility feature to help you better understand your bucket storage cost and usage, and to make insightful optimization decisions. With Storage Visibility, you can easily view your aggregate bucket storage costs across projects, GCP regions and GCP storage classes. At the same time, you can view associated usage metrics such as data transfer, operations and storage class. We also think it is becoming increasingly important to know which GCP regions are carbon neutral so your optimization decisions may include sustainability with cost and usage metrics. You will find Storage Visibility under Insights.
Below your aggregate cost charts, you can explore all buckets in your organization and quickly filter a particular project, region or both. (Pro Tip: Click a project, region to filter on the dimensions). Clicking 'View Buckets' (3 stacked dots) will launch a new window with bucket and object details. From here, you can view object counts, bucket lifecycle policies and any optimization recommendations associated with the buckets. For further exploration, you can export the results as a CSV.
