bigquery-observability
Provides data-retrieval best practices.
What this skill does for you
Provides data-retrieval best practices, tool selection guidance, and performant SQL query syntax for BigQuery telemetry across INFORMATION_SCHEMA, Cloud Monitoring, and the REST API. Use when the telemetry to fetch is already known, selecting telemetry tools, writing performant INFORMATION_SCHEMA queries, retrieving telemetry for diagnosing single-job performance bottlenecks, investigating slot contention, job concurrency and queue latency, analyzing reservation capacity, utilization and autoscaling saturation, or auditing capacity-based and on-demand compute and storage resource billable usage. Don't use for root-cause diagnosis or symptom troubleshooting when the cause is unknown (use bigquery-troubleshooting first), or for writing or optimizing business logic SQL (use bigquery-optimization).
