Google Cloud Bigtable is a sparsely populated table that can scale to billions of rows and thousands of columns. Google Cloud Bigtable enables you to store terabytes or even petabytes of data.
Before you use Google Bigtable Connector, you must complete the following prerequisite tasks:
•Create a Google account to access Google Cloud Bigtable.
•Ensure that you have the client_email, project_id, and private_key values for the service account. You will need to enter these details when you create a Google Bigtable connection in Data Integration.
•Enable billing for the project that you created.
•Ensure that you have enabled the Cloud Bigtable and Cloud Bigtable Admin APIs for your service account. Google Bigtable Connector uses the Google Cloud Bigtable and Cloud Bigtable Admin APIs to integrate with Google Cloud Bigtable.
•Ensure that you have created a Google Cloud Bigtable instance with the same name as the user name in the service account ID.
