Google has been developing its own tools to deliver services such as Gmail, YouTube, Google Drive, and Google+ for years. These tools have been converted into services that can be consumed by others. Consumers are given the amazing scalability that Google has to use for their own purposes. GCP lets you choose from computing, storage, networking, big data, and machine learning (ML) services to build your application on top of them. The number of services is growing constantly, and new announcements are made on an almost weekly basis. New services and features are released, first as alpha then as beta versions, and finally, are made available globally. The early releases are available even earlier for selected customers and partners. This allows the services to be tested by external parties even before the official release!
