Accelerate business agility and decision making with IoT data

Google Cloud IoT is a comprehensive set of integrated services that help you unlock business insights in real time from data across your globally dispersed devices. Device data captured by Cloud IoT Core gets published to Cloud Pub/Sub for downstream analytics. You can do ad hoc analysis using Google BigQuery, easily run advanced analytics and apply machine learning with Cloud Machine Learning Engine, or visualize IoT data results with rich reports and dashboards in Google Data Studio.

Improve operational efficiency of your devices

Get a new level of insight into the operational efficiency of your devices, and manage global devices and carry out firmware updates. Google Cloud IoT platform supports a wide variety of embedded operating systems, works seamlessly with Android Things, and provides out-of-box support for devices from leading manufacturers like Intel and Microchip. Trigger automatic changes to devices based on real-time events using Cloud Functions workflows.

Get started at top speed with fully managed services

Google’s serverless Cloud IoT platform eliminates the need to build and maintain costly infrastructure for your IoT data analysis. Connect easily to the cloud and accommodate all your globally dispersed devices using Cloud IoT Core‘s protocol bridge with automatic loading balancing and horizontal scaling. Ensure secure device connections with industry-standard protocols and lower your total cost of ownership with no capex or ongoing maintenance required.

IoT Features

End-to-end security

Enable end-to-end security using certificate-based authentication and TLS 1.2; devices running Android Things or supporting the Cloud IoT Core security requirements can deliver full-stack security

Single global system

Connect all devices to Google Cloud over standard protocols, such as MQTT, through the protocol bridge, and manage all your devices as a single global system

Integrated services

Seamlessly move IoT data across Google Cloud services. Ingest data with Cloud IoT Core, distribute data with Cloud Pub/Sub apply data transformations with Cloud Dataflow and store data in Cloud Storage, Cloud Bigtable or Cloud Spanner

Advanced data analytics

Perform ad hoc analysis using Google BigQuery, visualize data using Cloud Data Studio, and derive intelligence using Cloud Machine Learning

Business process optimization

Improve operational efficiency by making real-time changes to the device state, by integrating Cloud IoT Core with Cloud Functions workflows

Fully managed infrastructure

Scale instantly without limits to connect to your millions of global devices using horizontal scaling on Google Cloud’s serverless platform infrastructure

Partner ecosystem

Get out-of-box support for devices from hardware partners like Intel and Microchip

Vertical customer use cases

Manufacturing

Manage and monitor globally dispersed devices as a single system in real time to improve operational efficiency. Do maintenance proactively (and in some cases, automatically), and reduce repair costs by capturing real-time device status prior to deploying staff and resources.

Utilities

Collect and understand consumer usage patterns based on time, date, and location in order to more efficiently balance and optimize load. Schedule equipment and firmware upgrades or proactive maintenance in ways that minimize impact on operations.

Smart transportation

Get the data you need to intelligently manage transportation and logistics networks to ensure that vehicles and vessels are in the right place at the right time. Collect and store telemetry that can help you rethink how vehicles are maintained.

Oil and Gas

Perform predictive maintenance of resources and machinery on production sites. Understand how components interact in order to design more efficient and durable systems.
