Reduce the number of cold starts by setting a minimum number of instances, and set a maximum number of instances to guard against excessive scale-ups/costs. Read about it here.

If you've already upgraded your Firebase project to the full Google Analytics experience, this new feature is enabled by default and you can start using the new audiences right away. More info here.
