Google Cloud Platform is a suite of cloud services for computing, storage, machine learning, DevOps, and data analytics — built on the same infrastructure that powers Google Search and YouTube.
GCP is known for its strengths in data processing, AI/ML services, and Kubernetes — thanks to Google’s leadership in open-source container orchestration. Core products include Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE), BigQuery, Firebase, and Cloud Functions.
GCP offers flexible billing, deep AI integrations, and high-performance networking — making it a favorite among startups, data-heavy platforms, and engineering-forward teams.
