BALANCING INNOVATION WITH IT VISIBILITY
AND
CONTROL
Development and engineering teams are some of the largest consumers of cloud
and transient resources. As developers test applications or IT systems, they
need to quickly spin up virtual machines and other resources while controlling
costs. In many cases, they wind up building their own servers outside the control
of IT.
Because end-users can deploy complex applications to public cloud platforms,
this can lead to mismanagement of resources, server sprawl, and servers
vulnerable to network and cyber-attacks. End-users can become mired in
complexity as they attempt to provision resources, while IT teams can lose
visibility and control over those resources if a process in the workflow fails.
Moreover, IT administrators and end users are challenged by what seems like
an infinite number of choices that must be made before they can successfully
launch and provision cloud resources and services in most public clouds.
HYBRID CLOUD MANAGEMENT
GCP provides a way for enterprises to have containterization on premises with
their GKE On-Prem solution, as well as in their public cloud. Containerized
infrastructure can be running where it's best suited for the enterprise. As
enterprises adopt new technologies and services from many providers, they will
have to deal with complexity.
Many enterprise customers are increasingly looking to GCP to leverage enterprise-grade hybrid
cloud containerization workflows and big data analytics on demand, and for infrastructure-as-a-
service (IaaS) and platform-as-a-service (PaaS).
BigQuery provides a data warehouse and analytics on demand by creating a logical data warehouse
over managed, columnar storage, as well as data from object storage and spreadsheets. Google has
joined the other big cloud providers with serverless computing using its Cloud Functions.
