Last fall, Google joined Internet2 to work with member institutions to explore new opportunities for Google Cloud Platform.
This webinar focused on the future of a jointly developed Google Cloud Platform tailored for Research & Education with the Internet2 community to:

Google Cloud Platform for Research and Education
Today, inside Google, developers never write deployment scripts, but their code is pushed into production multiple times a day. They don’t share databases, write failover scripts or patch software stacks. And yet their software is some of the most resilient and secure ever created. This approach lets developers code without thinking about infrastructure.
Consequently Google Cloud Platform universities do a lot less un-productive infrastructure work. It’s an actual global, elastic, on demand set of services, that doesn’t require figuring out how to build it and make it work. It’s not about having enough machines, cables and disks. it’s about having the right abstractions that simplify complexity.
Focused on accelerating secure and reliable cloud mobility for higher education's diverse users, Internet2 NET+ is a research and education (R&E) community-driven initiative. Through a rigorous peer-driven evaluation process, R&E institutions and cloud service providers work together to develop offerings that maximize deployment efficiencies and minimize the business and legal challenges, financial costs, and technology risks of migrating from on-campus to cloud-based solutions.
