Reading Data from Cloud Bigtable with Cloud Functions
Cloud Bigtable can store petabytes of data — and Cloud Functions can access any of that data, parse it, and send it on to another service. In this hands-on lab, you'll first create a Bigtable instance as well as a table and populate it with test data. Then you'll build an HTTP-triggered Cloud Function to read specific elements of that data and output it for verification.
