Cloud Technology is rapidly making its way into enterprises' architecture management across the globe. As per research, 90% of enterprises are already using cloud-based systems in some way or the other for handling their day-to-day businesses. Vast Edge helps optimize your cloud account to reduce costs by almost 70% and enhance the security without compromising performance. Google Cloud Platform (GCP) is the third-largest cloud service provider offering one of the most promising growth rates in the last couple of years. Do you know that Google provides its cloud service in 200+ countries (the largest for any cloud service provider)?

Why Google Cloud Platform (GCP) Migration?
