As organizations scale modern workloads — from high-throughput databases and network/security appliances to real-time analytics and AI/ML inference — network and block storage performance can quickly become a bottleneck. Standard virtual machines often struggle to balance compute efficiency with the high-volume data-transfer demands of these applications. At Google Cloud Next ‘26, we announced C4N in preview, our first network- and…

To maintain business continuity, you need a robust data-backup strategy. While multi-region backups offer the highest availability, many organizations want a more cost-effective way to protect their data against a regional outage, but still adhere to data residency requirements. Building on our foundation of multi-region backup protection, we are excited to announce the general availability (GA) of cross-region backups for…
