Compute Engine adds MIG instance distribution view and Hyperdisk block storage CUDs
You can view how a managed instance group (MIG) distributes its instances across zones and machine types, directly from the MIG's Monitoring tab in the Google Cloud console.
For more information, see Monitor instance distribution in MIGs.
Generally available: Resource-based committed use discounts (CUDs) are available for block storage resources like Google Cloud Hyperdisk Balanced and Google Cloud Hyperdisk Throughput Exapool capacity. You can purchase 1-year and 3-year block storage commitments for Hyperdisk Balanced and Hyperdisk Throughput Exapool capacity and receive discounted rates for the capacity units that you consume as part of applicable Google Cloud Hyperdisk Exapools. For more information, see Block storage commitments and Purchase block storage commitments for Exapools.
