Gemini Cloud Assist
Transform cloud management and operations using Gemini
AI assistance for managing applications across the lifecycle, from application design, deployment, monitoring, troubleshooting, to performance and cost optimization.
Features
Application Design Center integration
Using Gemini Cloud Assist, you can design your application infrastructure efficiently in the Application Design Center by describing desired outcomes in natural language. It automatically generates architecture diagrams and application templates following best practices, which you can iteratively refine with Gemini. It also offers an integrated workflow for fast deployment. These well-configured templates can be distributed with your team using privately shared catalogs, or exported as Terraform for broader interoperability with existing production workflows.
Investigations
Gemini Cloud Assist accelerates troubleshooting with AI-powered analysis and signal correlation. When issues are identified, you can initiate investigations to have Gemini Cloud Assist analyze and reason to identify the root cause. When human support is needed, you can seamlessly transfer the investigation context to Google Cloud support for efficient collaboration. This helps you troubleshoot with less effort and reduce the time to resolution. (This feature is currently in private Preview, sign up to try it.)
Cost and utilization optimization
Gemini Cloud Assist provides AI-driven cost management and optimization capabilities for Developers and DevOps, as well as for FinOps practitioners and finance teams. In the Cloud Hub Cost Optimization dashboard, developers and DevOps get top insights into application cost and utilization, and Gemini Cloud Assist also identifies inefficiencies and delivers personalized recommendations (This feature is currently in private Preview, get your access). And within Cloud Billing, FinOps and Finance teams get AI-assistance for personalized cost reporting, cost trend analysis, and waste insights and cost optimization opportunities with FinOps Hub 2.0.
AI-powered log explanation, analysis, and troubleshooting
Gemini Cloud Assist integrates with Cloud Observability products to provide helpful troubleshooting assistance. It summarizes complex log entries into plain language, explains error messages, and delivers recommendations for rapid troubleshooting.
Security and compliance best practices
Gemini Cloud Assist helps cloud administrators enhance security and compliance.Through natural language chat, Cloud Admins can get tailored explanations, recommendations, and step-by-step guidance for many security and compliance related tasks, such as data encryption, secrets management, retention and most commonly used compliance frameworks. It can also help cloud admins generate and test custom organization policies though natural language, recommend IAM roles during permission set up, as well as diagnose and offer remediation recommendations for IAM permission-denied errors.
Network flow analysis with natural language
Gemini Cloud Assist integrates with Flow Analyzer to help simplify network analysis. It enables you to use natural language questions to analyze VPC flow logs, translates your questions into SQL queries for network traffic analysis, and visualizes traffic patterns for better understanding.
Storage insights with natural language
With Gemini Cloud Assist integration in Storage Insights Datasets, you can ask natural language questions about your cloud storage and get answers to help you optimize cost, performance, and security. It also provides easy access to deep knowledge, best practices, and troubleshooting guidance for Cloud Storage.
Gemini in Firebase
Gemini Cloud Assist includes Gemini in Firebase, which enables you to use natural language to explain, generate, and transform code. It provides quick access to Firebase product knowledge, best practices, and troubleshooting guidance, and helps analyze app crashes, pinpoint code issues, and suggest improvements. For Firebase Cloud Messaging, it offers campaign analysis, insights, and recommendations. You can also use it to generate schemas and explore data in Firebase Data Connect.
Optimization of data analytics and management
Gemini Cloud Assist in BigQuery offers AI-powered recommendations for materialized views, partitioning, and clustering. It is also available in DataProc to give you AI-driven recommendations for fixing slow or failed Spark jobs directly in the DataProc UI.
Database insights and fleet optimization
Gemini Cloud Assist, integrated with database products, provides AI assistance through natural language chat for fleet management, performance optimization, and cost reduction. It offers specific cost optimization tips related to idle resources and lets you easily access best practices and troubleshooting guidance for common database errors. Additionally, it features AI-powered troubleshooting workflows that detect, diagnose, and recommend solutions for complex database performance issues. Get started in the Database Center.
AI-powered chat for console and mobile app
Gemini Cloud Assist enables you to interact with Google Cloud using natural language. Through a chat interface, you can ask questions, query configurations, and generate code to manage resources. It provides a single point of access to essential information such as configurations, metrics, documentation and best practices, and gives tailored guidance to help with your cloud management tasks.
Turning insights into actionable workflows with Cloud Hub integration
Gemini Cloud Assist integrates with Cloud Hub to convert your key insights into actionable workflows. It directly investigates application events and errors shown in Cloud Hub, or optimizes cost and utilization with efficiency recommendations.
