Abstract: The advent of cloud computing is a watershed moment in the evolution of the information technology industry. The term “cloud computing” is used to describe the practice of using on-demand, scalable, and shared server space. In addition to just having to pay for the resources they really use, companies also don't have to worry about things like setting them up or keeping track of their use. Google Cloud Platform (GCP) is a top cloud application programming interface (API) nowadays. GCP's portfolio of public cloud services, built on a massive, stable infrastructure, has contributed to significant growth in the short time since the company's inception five years ago. The Google Cloud Platform is a collection of cloud computing services that aims to satisfy the requirements of a broad variety of cloud computing users. These services include computation, storage, and networking. Google Cloud Platform (GCP) is a public cloud provider that provides a wide range of computing services, such as data management, web and video content delivery via the internet, and artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) applications. Using Google's own infrastructure, you can create, deploy, and scale your own apps, websites, and services using Google Cloud Platform. With its roots in the Google App Engine architecture, GCP is a collection of cloud computing services that allows websites to be hosted in Google's data centers. Customers of Google Cloud are the rightful owners of their data and have the right to decide how that data is used. All data stored, transmitted, or processed using Google Cloud is encrypted at every stage. Your data, apps, infrastructure, and customers are all safeguarded on Google Cloud by the same infrastructure and security services that Google employs to prevent fraud, spam, and abuse.

Keywords: Cloud computing, Google cloud platform, APIs.
