In today's rapidly evolving technological landscape, artificial intelligence (AI) is making a significant impact across the country, delivering scale, efficiency and utilization of responsible best practices. New York is leading the way, embracing this technological shift, using generative AI (gen AI) to revolutionize how the government serves its constituents. From "Nice-to-Have" to "Must-Have" "Artificial intelligence in the public sector is more than wishful thinking," says Karen Dahut, CEO of Google Public Sector. "It's already making a difference today. AI and generative AI are moving fr ..read more

At Google Cloud Security, our goal is to make it easier for organizations to adopt and protect themselves with advanced security capabilities. Instead of increasing complexity by adding new products every time a new threat or new requirement emerges, we introduce simplicity by removing parts: No more duplicative tools, no more silos, no more gaps. Recently, at Google Cloud Next, we announced innovations across our security portfolio that are designed to deliver stronger security outcomes and enable every organization to make Google a part of their security team. We’re excited to bring our cap ..read more

“Continuous improvement” is an upbeat term that we like to throw around in technology circles. Let’s keep getting better! Who can argue with that? But realistically, nothing and no one improves continuously. We grow, we plateau, regress a bit, grow again, and so on. If we’re being honest, that “plateau” stage can sometimes last a long time, and we need a jolt to trigger our next climb to new heights. For many organizations, developer productivity has been "stuck" for a while now. Could AI be the thing to shake it loose? We just published a new paper that makes the case that it will. The topic ..read more

Cloud migration involves moving digital assets like data, apps, and infrastructure to a cloud environment. In particular, data and data platforms are essential for application, analytical, or AI/ML workloads; thus, it’s common to migrate existing data from other platforms, including on-premises or even other cloud providers. For most organizations, determining what to do with their data when moving it to a new platform is the first challenge.  Should you do a simple migration, also known as lift-and-shift? Or should you consider modernizing the platform and building an entirely new solut ..read more

At Google, we build sustainable, secure, and scalable hardware and software to enable services that support billions of users. We have embraced open innovation as a core tenet to deliver these experiences. Our society’s AI-driven future includes many types of system-on-chips (SoCs) acting in concert with each other — from CPUs to GPUs to TPUs to NICs to SSDs and more. To deliver secure solutions at scale, there must be trust and transparency for the firmware that runs on all of these chips. Welcoming Caliptra 1.0  Google partnered with AMD, Microsoft, and NVIDIA to develop Caliptra, a st ..read more

Today, we're launching the general availability (GA) of Direct VPC egress for Cloud Run. This feature enables your Cloud Run resources to send traffic directly to a VPC network without proxying it through Serverless VPC Access connectors, making it easier to set up, faster, and with lower costs. In fact, Direct VPC egress delivers approximately twice the throughput compared to both VPC connectors and the default Cloud Run internet egress path, offering up to 1 GB per second per instance. Whether you're sending traffic to destinations on the VPC, to other Google Cloud services like Cloud Stora ..read more
