Google Cloud Platform (GCP), by Google, is a suite of cloud computing services that run on the same infrastructure that Google uses internally for its end user products, such as Google Search, Gmail and YouTube. In addition to a set of management tools, it provides a series of modular cloud services, including IT, data storage, data analysis and machine learning. Registration requires a credit card or a bank account. Google Cloud Platform provides infrastructure as a service, platform as a service, and serverless computing environments. In April 2008, Google announced App Engine, a platform for developing and hosting web applications for data centers managed by Google, which was the company's first cloud computing service. The service became available in November 2011. Since the announcement of the App Engine, Google has added several cloud services to the platform. Google Cloud Platform is part of Google Cloud Platform, which includes the Google Cloud Platform, as well as G Suite, versions of Android and Chrome OS and application programming interfaces (APIs) for machine learning and business mapping services.
