Today, we’re continuing to invest in generative media by adding Lyria, Google’s text-to-music model, to Vertex AI in preview with allowlist. With the addition of music, Vertex AI is now the only platform with generative media models across all modalities – video, image, speech, and music. This means you can build a complete, production ready […]

Millions of developers use Firebase to engage their users, powering over 70 billion instances of apps every day, everywhere — from mobile devices and web browsers, to embedded platforms and agentic experiences. But full-stack development is evolving quickly, and the rise of generative AI has transformed not only how apps are built, but also what […]

Today’s fast-paced environment demands more than just data access; it requires a real-time data activation flywheel. A new reality is emerging where AI, infused directly into the data landscape, works hand-in-hand with intelligent agents. These agents act as catalysts, unlocking insights for everyone, and enabling the autonomous, real-time action that’s critical for success. Google’s Data […]

Every enterprise will soon rely on multi-agent systems – multiple AI agents working together – even when built on different frameworks or providers. Agents are intelligent systems that can act on your behalf using reasoning, planning, and memory capabilities. Under your supervision, they can think multiple steps ahead and accomplish tasks across various systems. Multi-agent […]

Like many of you reading this, I fancy myself a builder. I got my first taste of making a computer do something based on code I wrote into a TI-99  console when I was 8 years old and was hooked. In the four decades that have followed, I’ve seen hundreds, maybe even thousands of developers […]

From answering search queries, to streaming YouTube videos, to handling the most demanding cloud workloads, for over 25 years, we’ve been relentlessly pushing the boundaries of network technology, building a global infrastructure that powers Google and Google Cloud for billions of users and enterprise customers globally. We now stand at another pivotal moment, driven by […]

The age of AI is now. In fact, the global AI infrastructure market is on track to increase to more than $200 billion by 2028.  However, working with massive data, intricate models, and relentless iterations isn’t easy, and adapting to this new era can be daunting. Platform engineering and infrastructure teams that have invested in […]

For over 25 years, Google has pushed the boundaries of the network, with innovations that connect billions of users around the world to essential services like Gmail, YouTube, and Search. At the foundation lies Google’s vast backbone network. With 202 points of presence (PoPs), powered by over 2 million miles of fiber, 33 subsea cables, […]

Generative AI continues to capture our imagination and promises to transform every industry. Its transformative potential hinges on integrating powerful models like Gemini, with the most contextually-relevant enterprise data. Google Cloud is leading this transformation, not only by delivering the gen AI technologies themselves, but also by embedding those technologies directly into operational databases. For […]
