An application profile, or app profile, stores settings that tell your Cloud Bigtable instance how to handle incoming requests from an application. When an applications connects to a Bigtable instance, it can specify an app profile, and Bigtable uses that app profile for requests that the application sends over that connection.
This option is always used in conjunction with a bigtable::Table. The app profile belongs to the table's instance, with an id given by the value of this option.
