GCP – Run data and AI anywhere with new Google Distributed Cloud services
As enterprises and government organizations navigate their digital transformation journey, they face many challenges: connectivity constraints, the need for low-latency connections, or industry-specific compliance and data sovereignty requirements. These challenges can make it difficult to fully adopt a public cloud. Google Distributed Cloud (GDC) is designed to meet the unique demands of organizations that want […]

GCP – Vertex AI Search and Conversation is now generally available
For generative AI to achieve its immense potential, it needs to be broadly accessible and easy to integrate into a range of services. That’s why we offer our customers Vertex AI Search and Conversation— generally available today— to abstract the complexity of creating generative search and chat applications. These products enable even developers with little […]

GCP – Expanding our AI-optimized infrastructure portfolio: Introducing Cloud TPU v5e and announcing A3 GA
We’re at a once-in-a-generation inflection point in computing. The traditional ways of designing and building computing infrastructure are no longer adequate for the exponentially growing demands of workloads like generative AI and LLMs. In fact, the number of parameters in LLMs has increased by 10x per year over the past five years. As a result, […]

GCP – Introducing Mandiant Hunt for Chronicle to help you uncover hidden threats in real-time
Chronicle Security Operations is an essential security suite for any organization that wants to stay on top of the threats that they face. As part of our security announcements today at Google Cloud Next, we’re introducing our always-on AI collaborator Duet AI in Chronicle. Available in preview and expected to be generally available later this […]

GCP – Expanding Duet AI, an AI-powered collaborator, across Google Cloud

GCP – Announcing AlloyDB AI for building generative AI applications with PostgreSQL
Generative AI has captured our imagination in countless ways — not just for chatbots with humanlike responses, but also in the way it can unlock entirely new user experiences. And, unlike traditional AI workloads that require additional specialized skills, these new gen AI workloads are available to a larger segment of the developer community. As […]

GCP – New AI capabilities that can help address your security challenges
At Google Cloud, we continue to address pervasive and fundamental security challenges: the exponential growth in threats, the toil it takes for security teams to achieve desired outcomes, and the chronic shortage of security talent. At Google Cloud Next, we are leaning in to help solve these challenges by supercharging security with Duet AI, as […]

GCP – Introducing the next evolution of container platforms
Google Cloud has been on a mission to be the best place to run containerized workloads. This started back in 2014, when, inspired by Google’s internal cluster management system, Borg, we invented Kubernetes and introduced Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE), the first managed Kubernetes service in the world. GKE is the most scalable leading Kubernetes service […]
