Google Cloud Cost Anomaly Detection Now Generally Available

🔔 Google Cloud has made Cost Anomaly Detection generally available to provide an automatic safety net for unexpected cloud spend. Alerts are enabled by default for all projects and delivered to Billing Administrators, with preferences managed in the billing console and direct links to an Anomaly dashboard that shows suspected root causes. The GA release introduces AI-generated thresholds that learn from historical spending, a percentage-deviation filter to keep alerts relevant across project sizes, and cold-start handling so new accounts receive protection immediately. The feature is free and integrates with Cloud Budgets as part of Google Cloud’s FinOps capabilities.
