BigQuery Bytes Scanned Visibility
The Analytics Portal shows how many bytes each pipeline query scans in BigQuery for teams on on-demand pricing.
BigQuery's on-demand pricing can be a black box - and an expensive one. When costs spike, it's often hard to know why until after the bill arrives.
This update brings much-needed visibility: Artie now surfaces bytes scanned directly in the Analytics Portal, so teams can spot cost drivers before they become problems.
If you're using BigQuery with on-demand pricing, you can now see how many bytes each pipeline query scans - right from the Artie UI. This makes it easier to understand which workloads are driving cost, catch regressions early, and tune pipelines for efficiency.
It's one less dashboard to check - and one more way to stay ahead of unexpected spend.
Why this matters
- Track BigQuery cost drivers alongside Artie pipeline performance
- Catch spikes in bytes scanned before they impact your bill
- Understand usage trends and regressions at a glance
- Optimize pipelines for efficiency without trial-and-error
- Keep data teams and finance aligned with shared visibility
