Google Cloud Valuable Features
Saurav Singh
Technology Manager at Publicis Sapient
The most valuable features of Google Cloud for us are the integration with Kubernetes, IAM, Istio integration, and Terraform capabilities. Additionally, the overall route to live or the time to production has improved significantly. The scalability and flexibility have improved a lot. The ability to create boundaries between different parts of the application using VPCs is highly beneficial.

GCP has its own tools, and one of the services it provides alongside its hosting services or cloud services is monitoring or performance analysis for the environments they are hosting.
It offers out-of-the-box monitoring, however, it's limited to their technology. If customers use different technologies within their environment, GCP cannot offer a full performance analysis covering all the disclosures.
There has been a net benefit in cost saving. I provide platformized service solutions and infrastructure service solutions. Customers are mainly looking for services to save money.

Regarding Google Cloud's data analytics features, I find the presentation of information and the ability to move and transform data to be the most valuable. As for machine learning capabilities, they are helpful, especially in detecting anomalies or outliers in our data. For instance, Google Cloud can identify unusual network behavior and provide recommendations on how to address or leverage these findings effectively.

The protection is good enough. We can increase the storage as we need. The global infrastructure impacts our service availability and latency positively. Some customers want their data stored in Europe. Others need it closer to where the users operate to minimize the latency and lag for accessing the data.

Many companies initially consider top providers like AWS and Microsoft Azure, but most choose Google Cloud because of its offered solutions, pricing and local support.
Google Cloud has reduced our operational costs and increased efficiency. For example, deploying production applications traditionally took about a month, but with Google Cloud, it now takes only a day or two. This also extends to monitoring, allowing us to identify and address issues faster than on-premises solutions.
