The tool lacks to offer AI features. In the future, I would like the product to offer AI features to users. Nowadays, we are creating small acronyms for our SQL Server. We put some templates. If I just put your name and stop it, the entire cloud can be explored, but such features are not there in Google Cloud Spanner. As a layman rather than a developer, if I create a tool or a procedure. If I write a procedure and then when you describe a procedure, a dummy procedure will be written for you, and it will be available for you as a template in SQL Server, but such kind features are not there in Google Cloud Spanner.
Considering the developer experience, it is very hard to run Google Cloud Spanner locally. Google came up with something called Cloud Spanner Emulator, which fails to work like the real product if I want to develop some code and run a database locally on my machine. The aforementioned area of the solution can be considered for improvement. Postgresql databases support geolocation queries, and I would like to see something similar in Google Cloud Spanner. Something equivalent to Full Text Search from Postgres is another feature I would like to see in Google Cloud Spanner.
A feature I want to improve is the deployment of cameras and surveillance infrastructure. The current functionality is important, but artificial intelligence for camera and video surveillance would be a valuable addition to the infrastructure.

The tool needs to improve horizontal scaling.

We haven't had problems with the product at all. The cost can be a bit high.
