Edit Compression Rule Issue

Google Cloud has made Spanner queues generally available, letting applications commit database changes and queued tasks together in one transaction. Messages support delayed delivery, SQL consumption and transactional acknowledgments for agent handoffs and other asynchronous workflows.

Google Cloud is previewing CPU startup boost for GKE, which temporarily increases container CPU requests and lowers them after readiness without restarting the container. It requires GKE 1.36.0-gke.4447000 or later; Standard clusters need Vertical Pod Autoscaling enabled, while Autopilot enables it by default. Boost policies support multipliers or fixed additions, and Autopilot workloads must still satisfy CPU-to-memory ratios.
