  • BigQuery Federation supporting temporal expressions, recursive CTEs, and window aggregates
  • Caching Accelerator Limits for `caching_max_size` and `caching_max_items`
  • Stale-While-Revalidate Across Refreshes for cached SQL results
  • GitHub Data Connector with review, release, and repository tables
