Google explains its cloud computing vision for enterprises and startups

At the Google Cloud Platform developer conference today Google explained its vision of how enterprises will move to and operate more efficiently in its cloud. The vision: Zero-Dev-Ops cloud computing that "instead of programming a computer you teach it what it [Google's cloud] wants to know and it learns to give you what you want," according to Alphabet Chairman Eric Schmidt. The vision may sound more like a SciFi movie, but it knit together new and recently announced technologies that Google announced into a coherent explanation. Google plans to bring its enormous-scale data center know-how learned fulfilling 85% of the world's searches with open source software in a serverless secure cloud in which it invested 10 billion in capital equipment last year. It has repurposed open source versions of its highly optimized internal systems used to build and operate the seven services such as Maps and Gmail that have more than a billion users for its cloud customers.
