GCP Cloud SDK 582.0.0 removes Cloud SQL Proxy V1 and several gcloud commands

Wed, 26 Aug 2026 11:21:00 +0000

Platform/SRE — Plan: Cloud SQL Proxy V1 (‘cloud_sql_proxy’) is removed from gcloud SDK 582.0.0 — audit infrastructure automation and connection scripts for V1 references and migrate to ‘cloud-sql-proxy’ V2 before upgrading gcloud to 582.0.0.
CI/CD — Plan: If pipelines use gcloud to establish Cloud SQL connections or reference the removed api-registry MCP commands, they will break on upgrade to gcloud 582.0.0 — audit pipeline scripts and update to Cloud SQL Auth Proxy V2 before rolling out the new SDK version.

GCP: Telemetry API OTLP ingestion and Cloud SQL perf capture go GA

Thu, 06 Aug 2026 12:51:55 +0000

Platform/SRE — Plan: Two GA releases are worth scheduling for adoption: native OTLP metric ingestion into Cloud Monitoring via the Telemetry API (evaluate replacing or supplementing existing collector pipelines), and Cloud SQL for MySQL performance capture with configurable thresholds for long-running transactions and new triggers like CPU, memory, and lock waits.
CI/CD — Skip
Leader — Learn: The Telemetry API GA enables native OTLP ingestion into Cloud Monitoring, which may affect the build-vs-buy decision for third-party observability tooling on GCP; no strategic decision is required yet.
