Google Cloud is updating its spend-based Committed Use Discount (CUD) program to a new data model that replaces credit-based offsets with direct discounted costs. 

In response, we have updated DoiT Cloud Analytics to fully support this new schema, ensuring your reporting remains accurate once Google Cloud automatically applies this change on existing spend-based CUDs beginning January 21, 2026.

This update simplifies billing by utilizing "Consumption Models" to represent discounted rates rather than applying separate credits to list prices. While your total costs will not increase, the structure of your billing data, and how CUD-related savings are displayed, will change.

What’s changing:

• CUD savings display: To align with Google’s new methodology, we are modifying how savings are displayed in Cloud Analytics Reports. Reports will shift from showing savings as an in-line calculation to a distinct savings presentation, reflecting the difference between on-demand prices and your final discounted cost
• Automatic SKU Conversion: Google Cloud will automatically convert your current CUD SKUs to the new ones. Consequently, any unique processing or presentation of your current SKUs within DoiT will be seamlessly transitioned to the new SKUs.

While this format is optional until Google applies it universally to all customers on January 21, 2026, you can opt into the new CUD format early via the Google Cloud console and start exploring your savings in DoiT Cloud Intelligence.
