Google Cloud Platform Blog
Ushering in the next generation of computing at Google I/O
Wednesday, May 15, 2013
Over the last fourteen years we have been developing some of the best infrastructure in the world to power Google’s global-scale services. With
Google Cloud Platform
, our goal is to open that infrastructure and make it available to any business or developer anywhere. Today, we are introducing improvements to the platform and making
Google Compute Engine
available for anyone to use.
Google Compute Engine - now available for everyone
Google Compute Engine provides a fast, consistently high-performance environment for running virtual machines. Later today, you’ll be able to go online to cloud.google.com and start using Compute Engine.
In addition, we’re introducing new Compute Engine features:
Sub-hour billing
charges for instances in one-minute increments with a ten-minute minimum, so you don’t pay for compute minutes that you don’t use
Shared-core instances
provide smaller instance shapes for low-intensity workloads
Advanced Routing
features help you create gateways and VPN servers, and enable you to build applications that span your local network and Google’s cloud
Large
persistent disks
support up to 10 terabytes per volume, which translates to 10X the industry standard
We’ve also completed ISO 27001:2005 international security certification for Compute Engine,
Google App Engine
, and
Google Cloud Storage
.
Google App Engine adds the PHP runtime
App Engine 1.8.0
is now available and includes a Limited Preview of the
PHP runtime
- your
top requested feature
. We’re bringing one of the most popular web programming languages to App Engine so that you can run open source apps like WordPress. It also offers deep integration with other parts of Cloud Platform including
Google Cloud SQL
and Cloud Storage.
We’ve also heard that we need to make building modularized applications on App Engine easier. We are
introducing
the ability to partition apps into components with separate scaling, deployments, versioning and performance settings.
Introducing Google Cloud Datastore
Google Cloud Datastore
is a fully managed and schemaless solution for storing non-relational data. Based on the popular
App Engine High Replication Datastore
, Cloud Datastore is a standalone service that features automatic scalability and high availability while still providing powerful capabilities such as ACID transactions, SQL-like queries, indexes and more.
Over the last year we have continued our focus on feature enhancement and developer experience across
App Engine
,
Compute Engine,
Google BigQuery
,
Cloud Storage
and
Cloud SQL
. We also introduced
Google Cloud Endpoints
and
Google Cloud Console
.
With these improvements, we have seen increased usage with over 3 million applications and over 300,000 unique developers using Cloud Platform in a given month. Our developers inspire us everyday, and we can’t wait to see what you build next.
