![]() On the network management side, Google has expanded its overarching Network Intelligence Center. The company said the platform’s Network Analyzer, which learns and monitors customer networks to detect misconfigurations and drifts on network topology, firewall rules, routes, load balancers and connectivity to services and applications is now available. “Google has used eBPF for enhanced data-plane performance on its own infrastructure for a while now, and offering that benefit to enterprises customers adopting cloud-native applications and related network functions makes considerable sense.” New network management tools Network Function Optimizer provides a simpler, high-performance data plane for container-based networking, leveraging eBPF-based eXpress Data Path (XDP), Casemore said. They can use this function to minimize costs, get high performance and get service scaling along with it.” “Customers can use this function to steer their applications and add multiple services into a cloud container application framework,” Sambi said. “It’s an important feature for customers whose applications were either born in the cloud or being rewritten to move them to the cloud. Google also previewed a technology it says will let customers more easily network container-based resources. Network Function Analyzer lets customers connect multiple container network functions, apply labels, and steer traffic to them. ![]() Specifically, PSC provides encrypted connections across VPC networks that are in different groups, teams, projects, or organizations,” said Brad Casemore, Research VP, Datacenter and Multicloud Networks, IDC. “The new PSC enhancements include an L7 PSC, for simplified application-layer policy PSC over interconnect, which supports on-premises traffic through Cloud Interconnects to PSC endpoints PSC for hybrid environments (which is what most enterprises have), and additional integrations with partner services.” “Private Service Connect is important because it helps to simplify the networking and security that must accompany migrations of workloads to the cloud. Customers connect to Google Cloud using PSC endpoints with private IP addresses on Google virtual private cloud (VPC) networks. With PSC, customer-network traffic traverses only Google’s backbone network and isn’t exposed to the public internet, Sambi said. PSC integrates with managed data and analytic services from Confluent, Databricks, DataStax, Grafana, and Neo4J. ![]() It also supports using Cloud Interconnect, Google Cloud’s highly available, low-latency connection service, to link on-prem sites to other PSC endpoints, according to Sambi. On the networking front, Google Cloud has added features to its Private Service Connect offering that ties together groups, projects, and other organizations over encrypted links. PSC now includes Layer 7-based security, routing, and telemetry to ensure consistent policy control across the service. ![]()
