A community view: what’s top of mind at Google Cloud Next '17

Isnin, 6 Mac 2017

By Jo Maitland, Blogs and Social Media Lead, Google CloudGoogle Cloud Next '17

Amanda Folson, Develooper Advocate and Community Lead, GitLab

"The market is moving so fast that keeping tabs on it is tough when there’s so much going on. Google popped up overnight and is doing some very innovative work. As far as sessions go, I want to hear what Vint Cerf and Marc Andreessen have to say in their fireside chat on the past and future of enterprise computing. They’ve had a little bit to do with the internet! My company’s focused on orchestration and managing the lifecycle of code, so I’ll be attending sessions on Kubernetes, Docker and anything on DevOps. It’s where everything is headed."

Krish Subramanian, Founder, Rishidot Research

"I’m interested in finding out about enterprise companies adopting Google Cloud as well as the traction Google is seeing for machine learning. I want to see what’s in store to attract more devs to the service. Another trend I’m watching closely is serverless — I’ll be interested to learn how Google Cloud Functions stacks up against AWS Lambda."

David Mytton, Founder and CEO, Server Density

"We’ve been gradually migrating our systems over to GCP from IBM Softlayer. We are big advocates of handing off management of infrastructure to Google’s cloud services instead of wrangling it ourselves. We recently migrated our time series database to Google Cloud Bigtable. I’ll be giving a talk on this migration on March 8. I’m looking forward to meeting other GCP customers and learning about new products. Providing feedback one to one with specific Google teams is also really valuable."

Alex Williams, Founder and Editor-in-chief, The New Stack

"I am looking forward to learning more about how how Google views the next generation of data centers in the context of software development across multiple cloud infrastructures . . . be they customer infrastructures or those offered by competitors. . . We are curious about the evolution of APIs as they become more important for companies as a way to reach more third-party developers. This larger story about APIs is particularly pertinent when considering new "serverless" style architectures. It's in this realm that we see the intersection of machine learning and connected systems evolving. We'll be looking for proof points of this evolution when speaking with Google developers and engineers as well as customers and conference attendees. I am also hoping to get a deeper understanding of the way Google views open source ecosystems."

Simone Brunozzi, CTO, MosaixSoft

Developer Advocates offer up their favorite Google Cloud NEXT 17 sessions

Jumaat, 17 Februari 2017

By Sam Ramji, Vice President of Product Management, Compute and Developer ServicesGoogle Cloud Next '17

If you’re a developer working in Ruby, you know to turn to Aja Hammerly for all things Ruby/Google Cloud Platform (GCP)-related. Aja’s top pick for Rubyists at Next is Google Cloud Platform < 3 Ruby with Google Developer Program Engineer Remi Taylor, but there are other noteworthy mentions on her personal blog.

Mete Atamel is your go-to DA for all things Windows on GCP. Selfishly, his top Next session is his own about running ASP.NET apps on GCP, but he has plenty more suggestions for you to choose from.

Groovy nut Guillaume Laforge is going to be one busy guy at Next, jumping from between sessions about PaaS, serverless and containers, to name a few. Here’s his full list of his must-see sessions.

If you’re a game developer, let Mark Mandel be your guide. Besides co-presenting with Rob Whitehead, CTO of Improbable, Mark has bookmarked sessions about location-based gaming, using GPUs and game analytics. Mosy on over to his personal blog for the full list.

In the past year, Google Apps Script has opened the door to building amazing customizations for G Suite, our communication and collaboration platform. In this G Suite Developers blog post, Wesley Chun walks you through some of the cool Apps Script sessions, as well as sessions about App Maker and some nifty G Suite APIs.

Want to attend sessions that teach you about our machine learning services? That’s where you’ll find our hands-on ML expert Sara Robinson, who in addition to recommending her favorite Next sessions, also examines her talk from last year’s event using Cloud Natural Language API.

Google BigQuery, our fully managed data warehouse, has been significantly upgraded to enable widespread adoption of cloud data analytics. BigQuery support for Standard SQL is now generally available, and we’ve added new features that improve compatibility with more data tools than ever and foster deeper collaboration across your organization with simplified query sharing. We also integrated Identity and Access Management (IAM) that allows businesses to fine-tune their security policies. And to make it accessible for any business to use BigQuery, we now offer unlimited flat-rate pricing that pairs unlimited queries with predictable data storage costs.

Cloud Machine Learning is now available to all businesses. Integrated with our data analytics and storage cloud services such as Google BigQuery, Google Cloud Dataflow, and Google Cloud Storage, it helps enable businesses to easily train quality machine learning models on their own data at a faster rate. “Seeing is believing” with machine learning, so we're rolling out dedicated educational and certification programs to help more customers learn about the benefits of machine learning for their organization and give them the tools to put it into use.

Top 5 GCP NEXT breakout sessions on YouTube (so far)

Posted by Alex Barrett, Editor, Google Cloud Platform BlogGCP NEXTthirty sessionsData Center 360 videoDay One keynotesDay 2 keynotes

What’s the secret behind Google’s legendary uptime? Three words: site reliability engineers. In “How Google Does Planet-Scale Engineering for Planet-Scale Infrastructure” Google engineering director Melissa Bindle lays out the relationship between SREs and developer teams, and how they ensure uptime for Google.com and Google Cloud Platform users. Even if your organization isn’t operating at quite planetary scale, lessons abound for anyone that cares about building and operating resilient environments.

What exactly is machine learning, and what can it do for you? In “Build smart applications with your new superpower: cloud machine learning” Google Developer Advocate Julia Ferraioli walks through the range of Google’s machine learning options, from TensorFlow, to Google Cloud Machine Learning to the Machine Learning APIs. She’s also joined by David Zuckerman, head of developer experience at Wix.com, who describes how it used Google machine learning to mine customer images with the new Vision API.

Cloud Platform users do the darndest things. In Analyzing 25 billion stock market events in an hour with NoOps on GCP, Fidelity Information Systems CTO Neil Palmer and developer Todd Ricker describe how they “ingest, process and analyze the entire U.S. options and equities market in 4 hours using Google Cloud Dataflow, Google Coud Pub/Sub and Google Cloud Bigtable.” That’s 15 TB of data. On a daily basis. That it then makes available for market reanalysis to the regulators.

Cloud Platform isn’t all about crunching large amounts of data for ginormous financial services firms. It’s also about democratizing access to Google’s amazing capabilities to the world at large, wherever they may be. In “Building iOS Apps with Firebase,” Google Cloud Developer Advocate Sara Robinson walks users through how to develop a native iOS app using Firebase, a mobile back-end as a service, and then ties that app into Google Cloud Vision API to provide face and object recognition.

Rounding out the list of most-watched breakout sessions is Painless container management with GKE & Kubernetes. Brendan Burns, Google’s lead engineer on the Kubernetes project, provides context and backstory; Rich Steenberg, principal engineer at WePay, a Kubernetes shop, describes how they’re using Kubernetes today; and Tim Hockin, a Google software engineer, describes what’s new in Kubernetes 1.2, and what’s on tap.

Google Cloud and Autodesk enable 10x improvement in media rendering efficiency

Isnin, 18 April 2016

Posted by Todd Prives, Product Manager, Google Cloud PlatformNABGoogle Cloud Platformin the media and entertainment industryAutodesk Maya

Product teams at Google and Autodesk have developed a cloud-optimized version of Autodesk® Maya®, the popular tool for animation, modeling and rendering. Via a Maya plugin, 3D scenes are transferred to Google Compute Engine in the background, while the artist is working. Because Maya is capable of running on the artist’s workstation and also in the cloud on GCP, this allows artists to run massively parallel rendering far more efficiently than before — taking advantage of the scalability, performance, and price benefits of GCP

Compared with the non-optimized version, Maya® customers see up to 10x improvement in file upload efficiency. This allows many rendering jobs to start instantaneously, cutting wait time and accelerating time to finished shot
