Google Cloud Platform



Google Cloud Platform (GCP) released on 11th October 2011 is a combination of services and products by which we can build applications on Google's software and infrastructure. Google is steadily productizing and monetizing its internal systems and infrastructure such that it can be used to build a Search Engine, Gmail, Maps and all of its other products.Google uses GCP for itself and made it available to any customer with payment options.



Cloud-based service models at GCP


    ● IaaS (Infrastructure as a service) - Google Compute Engine

   ●PaaS (Platform as a service) - Google App Engine

   ●Saas (Software as a service) - Google docs.


GCP is a mixture of IaaS (Infrastructure as a service) and PaaS (Product as a service). There is also the usual compute, storage and networking that is the root of any IaaS. There are then higher level services built with those core building blocks, such as a MySQL database as a service, NoSQL, BigQuery columnar database and so on. There's also a PaaS service which offers a higher level abstraction of your app, trading off the ability to pull the underlying compute/storage layer in return for simplicity.


Why GCP?


    ● Affordable prices w.r.t competitors

   ●Distribution of data across several physical disks makes it persistent

   ●Availability at Global Venues

   ●Last for very short period of time for reserved IP’s

   ●Integration - Well equipped to works with different Google products




Google is continually developing and improving products on GCP so now it's great time to develop applications there. Advantage is that they are building products to scale and that behind them is a team of people who takes care that Google's products run smoothly.
