About Google Cloud
Google Cloud is broadening Gemini Enterprise's data reach and tightening security defaults.
GCP is shipping its usual high-cadence digest of small-to-medium changes. The visible threads: Gemini Enterprise added 11 third-party data store connectors (Clinical Trials, Hugging Face, Microsoft Learn, plus a long tail of consumer apps), and Gemini 3.1 Pro and 3 Flash entered limited availability for Enterprise editions. Cloud NGFW gained organization-scoped resource management in preview, Cloud SQL for SQL Server got PolyBase GA, BigQuery Data Transfer is moving Google Ads transfers behind MFA, and SecOps continues a stream of playbook usability tweaks.
