Google Distributed Cloud connected
Extend Google Cloud AI and infrastructure on-premises
Google Distributed Cloud connected is a hardware and software product that connects Google Cloud to your edge environments without compromising on latency or connectivity.
Features
Leading AI capabilities
Gemini is now available on GDC. Gemini’s advanced reasoning and state-of-the-art generation capabilities on GDC unlock key generative AI capabilities, including automation, content generation, discovery, and summarization on-premises.
Google Agentspace search is now available on GDC. This brings Google-quality and faster search experiences for retrieval and analysis of on-premises data sources, and offers a permissions-aware managed RAG experience with a unified search experience across disparate data sources.
Hardware delivery options designed for your needs
Deploy and scale AI-ready infrastructure on-premises: choose between sourcing Google-provided or customer-sourced hardware.
Consistent applications platform: Common tools and processes
Take advantage of Google Cloud services at your data center and edge locations to quickly modernize your apps. Google Distributed Cloud connected uses a cloud-backed control plane that provides a consistent management experience at scale. Leverage common tools, policies, and processes that you use in the cloud for mission-critical use cases running on the edge, such as computer vision and Google AI edge inferencing.
Gain real-time insights from data locally with low latency
Use the power of Google’s AI, data analytics, and databases solutions to uncover insights and remove traditional constraints of scale, performance, and cost when you're processing data, no matter where that data is generated. Bring only insights and value-added data to the regional cloud without uploading low-value data from your edge cloud.
Support regulatory and sovereignty requirements
Maintain autonomy and control over your infrastructure and data while adhering to strict sovereignty, data security, and privacy requirements. Remove any PII and other sensitive information at the edge while still leveraging regional clouds for any data in highly regulated verticals.
Optimized managed service for network functions and RAN
We offer customized hardware that leverages our optimized data plane for high throughput packet processing to enable telecom use cases, including 5G core network functions and virtual radio access network (vRAN) functions. Communication service providers (CSPs) can run these functions at the edge while maintaining an open architecture that does not lock them into proprietary technology.
How It Works
Google Distributed Cloud connected is a portfolio of fully managed hardware and software solutions that extend Google Cloud’s infrastructure and services to the edge and data centers. It is ideal for running local data processing, low latency edge workloads, and modernizing telecom networks.
