Google’s cloud services
allow you to host your applications in the cloud and leverage the same infrastructure that power Google's own applications.There are more than 200,000 developers who have created apps on Google’s cloud services. Today, we are announcing several enhancements to our services targeted at businesses looking to build applications in the cloud.
New enterprise level service and support option for Google App Engine
When choosing a platform for your most critical business applications or standardizing on one across your organization, we recognize that uptime guarantees, easy management and support are just as important as product features. So today, we are launching
Google App Engine Premier Accounts
. For $500 per month, you’ll receive premier support, a 99.95% uptime service level agreement and the ability to create unlimited number of apps on your premier account domain.
To sign up for a premier account, email our sales team at appengine_premier_requests@google.com.
Google Cloud SQL - Your database in the cloud
Last week, we announced the limited preview of
Google Cloud SQL
. It powers your App Engine applications with a familiar
relational database
in a fully managed cloud environment. This allows you to focus on developing your applications and services, free from the chores of managing, maintaining and administering relational databases.
Cloud SQL is available free of charge for now. It will continue to evolve as we work out the kinks during the preview.
Let us know
if you’d like to take it for a spin.
Google Cloud Storage is out of Code Labs, with new features and lower price
Last year,
we introduced
Google Storage for developers, a service that lets you store data on Google’s infrastructure with very high reliability, availability and performance. You can use it for your online archives, storing and serving static content (e.g. images and video), sharing data with your customers and partners, as well for use with other Google services like App Engine, Prediction API and BigQuery.
Today, Google Storage for Developers is out of Labs, and has a new name -
Google Cloud Storage
. In addition to leaving Labs, we are announcing several new features. You can now read and write files to Google Cloud Storage via the
App Engine Files API
. We are also making
detailed usage information
, including access analytics and storage use data, available to all our customers.
Finally, we are lowering the prices for storage and bandwidth across the board. We are not charging for ingress and introducing volume discounts for our larger users. Depending on your usage patterns, you could
save over 40%
of your monthly bill. Please see our updated pricing
here
.
Google Prediction API graduates from labs, adds new features
Since the general availability launch of the
Prediction API
earlier this year, we have been very excited about giving you access to machine learning in the cloud to build smarter apps. Today, we are announcing the latest release of Prediction API - v1.4. With the release of this version, Prediction API is graduating from Google Code Labs. The new release will also includes two of your most requested features:
PMML
v4.01 support and data
anomaly detection
.
Prediction API has a variety of use cases from helping
increase fuel economy
to creating
movie recommendation services
. It is one of the services which provides a clean and simple API to machine learning that anybody can understand. At the same time, it is hosted in the cloud and ideally situated for integration with your web application.
We are enabling our enterprise customers to build business solutions that take advantage of the computing power and scalability of Google’s cloud services without all the hassles of deployment of applications. We have been making great progress on Google App Engine, Cloud Storage, and Prediction API. There is more to come, stay tuned.
