The title, while interesting, isn't the posts title and hides that the post contains a lot more such as Cloud SQL 2nd Gen's GA, Cloud Bigtable's GA, Cloud Datastore's GA (and serving 15 trillion requests per month).
It probably be changed to the blogs title "Advancing enterprise database workloads on Google Cloud Platform".
Agreed. Lots of goodies announced, including taking Nearline Storage to near-realtime (versus 3+ hours on Glacier) and an increase in IOPS for some persistent disks.
