Google Cloud IoT

Unlock business insights from your global device network with an intelligent IoT platform.

Platform for intelligent IoT services

Google Cloud IoT is a complete set of tools to connect, process, store, and analyze data both at the edge and in the cloud. The platform consists of scalable, fully-managed cloud services; an integrated software stack for edge/on-premises computing with machine learning capabilities; and managed Android Things OS for all your IoT needs.

Accelerate business agility and decision making with IoT data

Gain real-time business insights from globally dispersed devices, at the edge or in the cloud, with comprehensive services from Google Cloud IoT. Device data captured by Cloud IoT Core gets published to Cloud Pub/Sub for downstream analytics. Easily do ad hoc analysis using Google BigQuery or run advanced analytics and apply machine learning with Cloud Machine Learning Engine. Plus, you can visualize results with rich reports and dashboards in Google Data Studio.

Bring AI to the edge

Extend AI capabilities to gateways and edge devices with Cloud IoT Edge and Edge TPU™, Google’s purpose-built hardware accelerator chip. With Google Cloud IoT platform, you can run IoT solutions with machine learning capabilities both locally and in the cloud. The result is edge and gateway devices that deliver deep insights faster from locally generated data.

Improve operational efficiency

Discover how efficiently your devices operate, manage global assets, and carry out firmware updates on Google Cloud IoT platform. The platform supports a wide variety of embedded operating systems, works seamlessly with Android Things, and provides out-of-the-box support for devices from leading manufacturers like Intel and Microchip. Plus, trigger automatic changes based on real-time events using Cloud Functions workflows.

Enhance your IoT solution with location intelligence

Make your business location-aware with the power of Google Maps. Visualize where assets are located in real time, where they’ve traveled, and how often they’ve moved. Whether your IoT assets are indoors, in remote areas, or distributed across hundreds of cities, track them with precision.
