VectorData vs BigQuery console alone
JOBS and INFORMATION_SCHEMA exist — nobody watches them every morning.
The problem
The console is a powerful flashlight. It is not a ritual or an alert product.
The outcome
VectorData turns metadata you already have into SLAs, queues, and calm pages.
Console
Manual
VD
Ritual + alerts
Data
Same metadata
What you get
Alerts need grouping
Console won’t.
History + baselines
Productized.
