Today, Google opened up their Data Cloud Summit with a bevy of announcements of
new products and enhancements designed to help data scientists leverage the
power of the Google Cloud Platform to perform data science. The company invested
heavily in artificial intelligence over the years and its new products can help
companies and users make sense of the flood of data with both traditional
analysis and machine learning. 

“Data is probably on the top of the agenda of every C-suite on the planet,”
explained Gerrit Kazmaier, general manager and VP for databases, data analytics
and looker at Google Cloud. “Every company is a big data company. It is
multiformat. It’s streaming and it’s everywhere.”

Google wants to compete for that demand with its cloud platform by offering
sophisticated tools for applying artificial intelligence and machine learning.
At the same time, it’s nurturing an open ecosystem so that companies can use and
share data from wherever it may be captured. The new releases emphasize breaking
barriers between clouds from different merchants and also self-hosting options
by the customers. 

This open strategy can help Google battle with large competitors like Amazon or
Microsoft. Amazon’s Web Services offers close to a dozen different options for
data storage and these are all tightly integrated with many platforms for data
analysis with traditional reports or machine learning. Microsoft’s Azure also
offers a wide range of options that leverage their deep history with enterprise
computing.  

Google’s BigLake platform is designed to work with data across various clouds,
both stored locally on premises and in commercial clouds, including its
competitors. The service can offer enterprises a chance to unify their data
warehouses and lakes in one multi-cloud platform. 

In the past, many companies created data warehouses, a well-governed model that
combined good report generation with solid access control. Lately, some have
been using the term “data lake” to describe systems that are optimized more for
large size than sophisticated tools. Google wants to absorb these different
approaches with their BigLake model.

“By bringing these worlds together, we take goodness of one side and apply it
onto the other side and that way you just make your storage infinite,” explained
Sudhir Hasbe, a director at Google’s Cloud. “You can put as much data as you
want. You get the richness of the governance and management that you want in
your environment in a vastly changing regulatory environment. You can store all
the data and manage it and govern it really well.”


CLOUD ALLIANCE

One part of Google’s strategy is to create the Data Cloud Alliance, a
collaboration between Google and Confluent, Databricks, Dataiku, Deloitte,
Elastic, Fivetran, MongoDB, Neo4j, Redis and Starburst. The group wants to help
standardize open formats for data so that information can flow as easily as
possible between the different clouds across political and corporate barriers.

“We are excited to partner with Google Cloud and the members of this Data Cloud
Alliance to unify access to data across clouds and application environments to
remove barriers to digital transformation efforts,” said Mark Porter, CTO at
MongoDB. “Legacy frameworks have made working with data hard for too many
organizations. There couldn’t be a more timely and important data initiative to
build faster and smarter data-driven applications for customers.”

At the same time, Google must also watch a growing number of smaller cloud
vendors like Vultr or DigitalOcean that offer prices that are often dramatically
lower. Google’s deeper commitment to artificial intelligence research allows
them to offer much more sophisticated options than any of these commodity cloud
vendors. 

“The one thing that sets Google truly apart is that we believe in developing
one-of-a-kind technical products,” said Kazmaier. “Our mindset for innovation is
rooted and understanding the data is a vast and limitless resource if you
harness it in the right way. Most importantly, you need to have an open
ecosystem around it for it to be successful.”

The Vertex AI Workbench is a tool that integrates Jupyter notebooks with the
major components of Google’s Cloud, from data processing instances to serverless
to the event-driven tools like Spark. The tool can draw information from any of
these sources and feed it into analytic routines so data scientists can search
for signals in the data. It becomes provisionally available in some regions on
April 6th and everywhere by June. 

“At Google Cloud, we’re removing the limits of data clouds to further cose the
Data-to-AI-Value gap.” said June Yang, VP of cloud AI and innovation at Google.
“This capability enables teams to be able to build and train and deploy models
five times faster than traditional notebooks.”

The company also wants to encourage teams and businesses to share some of the AI
models that they create. The Vertex AI Model Registry, now in preview, will
offer a way for data scientists and application developers to store and
repurpose AI models.

VentureBeat's mission is to be a digital town square for technical
decision-makers to gain knowledge about transformative enterprise technology and
transact. Learn more about membership.
