Nikesh Arora, Palo Alto Networks | Palo Alto Networks Ignite22
Upbeat music plays >> Voice Over: TheCUBE presents Ignite 22, brought to you by Palo Alto Networks. >> Good morning everyone. Welcome to theCUBE. Lisa Martin here with Dave Vellante. We are live at Palo Alto Networks Ignite. This is the 10th annual Ignite. There's about 3,000 people here, excited to really see where this powerhouse organization is taking security. Dave, it's great to be here. Our first time covering Ignite. People are ready to be back. They.. and security is top. It's a board level conversation. >> It is the other Ignite, I like to call it cuz of course there's another big company has a conference name Ignite, so I'm really excited to be here. Palo Alto Networks, a company we've covered for a number of years, as we just wrote in our recent breaking analysis, we've called them the gold standard but it's not just our opinion, we've backed it up with data. The company's on track. We think to do close to 7 billion in revenue by 2023. That's double it's 2020 revenue. You can measure it with execution, market cap M and A prowess. I'm super excited to have the CEO here. >> We have the CEO here, Nikesh Arora joins us from Palo Alto Networks. Nikesh, great to have you on theCube. Thank you for joining us. >> Well thank you very much for having me Lisa and Dave >> Lisa: It was great to see your keynote this morning. You said that, you know fundamentally security is a data problem. Well these days every company has to be a data company. Grocery stores, gas stations, car dealers. How is Palo Alto networks making customers, these data companies, more secure? >> Well Lisa, you know, (coughs) I've only done cybersecurity for about four, four and a half years so when I came to the industry I was amazed to see how security is so reactive as opposed to proactive. We should be able to stop bad threats, right? as they're happening. But I think a lot of threats get through because we don't have the right infrastructure and the right tooling and right products in there. So I think we've been working hard for the last four and a half years to turn it around so we can have consistent data flow across an enterprise and then mine that data for threats and anomalous behavior and try and protect our customers. >> You know the problem, I wrote this, this weekend, the problem in cybersecurity is well understood, you put up that Optiv graph and it's like 8,000 companies >> Yes >> and I think you mentioned your keynote on average, you know 30 to 40 tools, maybe 50, at least 20, >> Yes. >> from the folks that I talked to. So, okay, great, but actually solving that problem is not trivial. To be a consolidator, I mean, everybody wants to consolidate tools. So in your three to four years and security as you well know, it's, you can't fake security. It's a really, really challenging topic. So when you joined Palo Alto Networks and you heard that strategy, I know you guys have been thinking about this for some time, what did you see as the challenges to actually executing on that and how is it that you've been able to sort of get through that knot hole. >> So Dave, you know, it's interesting if you look at the history of cybersecurity, I call them the flavor of the decade, a flare, you know a new threat vector gets created, very large market gets created, a solution comes through, people flock, you get four or five companies will chase that opportunity, and then they become leaders in that space whether it's firewalls or endpoints or identity. And then people stick to their swim lane. The problem is that's a very product centric approach to security. It's not a customer-centric approach. The customer wants a more secure enterprise. They don't want to solve 20 different solutions.. problems with 20 different point solutions. But that's kind of how the industry's grown up, and it's been impossible for a large security company in one category, to actually have a substantive presence in the next category. Now what we've been able to do in the last four and a half years is, you know, from our firewall base we had resources, we had intellectual capability from a security perspective and we had cash. So we used that to pay off our technical debt. We acquired a bunch of companies, we created capability. In the last three years, four years we've created three incremental businesses which are all on track to hit a billion dollars the next 12 to 18 months. >> Yeah, so it's interesting on Twitter last night we had a little conversation about acquirers and who was a good, who was not so good. It was, there was Oracle, they came up actually very high, they'd done pretty, pretty good Job, VMware was on the list, IBM, Cisco, ServiceNow. And if you look at IBM and Cisco's strategy, they tend to be very services heavy, >> Mm >> right? How is it that you have been able to, you mentioned get rid of your technical debt, you invested in that. I wonder if you could, was it the, the Cloud, even though a lot of the Cloud was your own Cloud, was that a difference in terms of your ability to integrate? Because so many companies have tried it in the past. Oracle I think has done a good job, but it took 'em 10 to 12 years, you know, to, to get there. What was the sort of secret sauce? Is it culture, is it just great engineering? >> Dave it's a.. thank you for that. I think, look, it's, it's a mix of everything. First and foremost, you know, there are certain categories we didn't play in so there was nothing to integrate. We built a capability in a category in automation. We didn't have a product, we acquired a company. It's a net new capability in instant response. We didn't have a capability. It was net new capability. So there was, there was, other than integrating culturally and into the organization into our core to market processes there was no technical integration needed. Most of our technical integration was needed in our Cloud platform, which we bought five or six companies, we integrated then we just bought one recently called cyber security as well, which is going to get integrated in the Cloud platform. >> Dave: Yeah. >> And the thing is like, the Cloud platform is net new in the industry. We.. nobody's created a Cloud security platform yet, so we're working hard to create it because we don't want to replicate the mistakes of the past, that were made in enterprise security, in Cloud security. So it's a combination of cultural integration it's a combination of technical integration. The two things we do differently I think, than most people in the industry is look, we have no pride of, you know of innovations. Like, if somebody else has done it, we respect it and we'll acquire it, but we always want to acquire number one or number two in their category. I don't want number three or four. There's three or four for a reason and there still leaves one or two out there to compete with. So we've always acquired one or two, one. And the second thing, which is as important is most of these companies are in the early stage of development. So it's very important for the founding team to be around. So we spend a lot of time making sure they stick around. We actually make our people work for them. My principle is, listen, if they beat us in the open market with all our resources and our people, then they deserve to run this as opposed to us. So most of our new product categories are run by founders of companies required. >> So a little bit of Jack Welch, a little bit of Franks Lubens is a, you know always deference to the founders. But go ahead Lisa. >> Speaking of cultural transformation, you were mentioning your keynote this morning, there's been a significant workforce transformation at Palo Alto Networks. >> Yeah >> Talk a little bit about that, cause that's a big challenge, for many organizations to achieve. Sounds like you've done it pretty well. >> Well you know, my old boss, Eric Schmidt, used to say, 'revenue solves all known problems'. Which kind of, you know, it is a part joking, part true, but you know as Dave mentioned, we've doubled or two and a half time the revenues in the last four and a half years. That allows you to grow, that allows you to increase headcount. So we've gone from four and a half thousand people to 14,000 people. Good news is that's 9,500 people are net new to the company. So you can hire a whole new set of people who have new skills, new capabilities and there's some attrition four and a half thousand, some part of that turns over in four and a half years, so we effectively have 80% net new people, and the people we have, who are there from before, are amazing because they've built a phenomenal firewall business. So it's kind of been right sized across the board. It's very hard to do this if you're not growing. So you got to focus on growing. >> Dave: It's like winning in sports. So speaking of firewalls, I got to ask you does self-driving cars need brakes? So if I got a shout out to my friend Zeus Cararvela so like that's his line about why you need firewalls, right? >> Nikesh: Yes. >> I mean you mentioned it in your keynote today. You said it's the number one question that you get. >> and I don't get it why P industry observers don't go back and say that's, this is ridiculous. The network traffic is doubling or tripling. (clears throat) In fact, I gave an interesting example. We shut down our data centers, as I said, we are all on Google Cloud and Amazon Cloud and then, you know our internal team comes in, we'd want a bigger firewall. I'm like, why do you want a bigger firewall? We shut down our data centers as well. The traffic coming in and out of our campus is doubled. We need a bigger firewall. So you still need a firewall even if you're in the Cloud. >> So I'm going to come back to >> Nikesh: (coughs) >> the M and A strategy. My question is, can you be both best of breed and develop a comprehensive suite number.. part one and part one A of that is do you even have to, because generally sweets win out over best of breed. But what, how do you, how do you respond? >> Well, you know, this is this age old debate and people get trapped in that, I think in my mind, and let me try and expand the analogy which I tried to do up in my keynote. You know, let's assume that Oracle, Microsoft, Dynamics and Salesforce did not exist, okay? And you were running a large company of 50,000 people and your job was to manage the customer process which easier to understand than security. And I said, okay, guess what? I have a quoting system and a lead system but the lead system doesn't talk to my coding system. So I get leads, but I don't know who those customers. And I write codes for a whole new set of customers and I have a customer database. Then when they come as purchase orders, I have a new database with all the customers who've bought something from me, and then when I go get them licensing I have a new database and when I go have customer support, I have a fifth database and there are customers in all five databases. You'll say Nikesh you're crazy, you should have one customer database, otherwise you're never going to be able to make this work. But security is the same problem. >> Dave: Mm I should.. I need consistency in data from suit to nuts. If it's in Cloud, if you're writing code, I need to understand the security flaws before they go into deployment, before they go into production. We for somehow ridiculously have bought security like IT. Now the difference between IT and security is, IT is required to talk to each other, so a Dell server and HP server work very similarly but a Palo Alto firewall and a Checkpoint firewall Fortnight firewall work formally differently. And then how that transitions into endpoints is a whole different ball game. So you need consistency in data, as Lisa was saying earlier, it's a data problem. You need consistency as you traverse to the enterprise. And that's why that's the number one need. Now, when you say best of breed, (coughs) best of breed, if it's fine, if it's a specific problem that you're trying to solve. But if you're trying to make sure that's the data flow that happens, you need both best of breed, you know, technology that stops things and need integration on data. So what we are trying to do is we're trying to give people best to breed solutions in the categories they want because otherwise they won't buy us. But we're also trying to make sure we stitch the data. >> But that definition of best of breed is a little bit of nuance than different in security is what I'm hearing because that consistency >> Nikesh: (coughs) Yes, >> across products. What about across Cloud? You mentioned Google and Amazon. >> Yeah so that's great question. >> Dave: Are you building the security super Cloud, I call it, above the Cloud? >> It's, it's not, it's, less so a super Cloud, It's more like Switzerland and I used to work at Google for 10 years, not a secret. And we used to sell advertising and we decided to go into pub into display ads or publishing, right. Now we had no publishing platform so we had to be good at everybody else's publishing platform >> Dave: Mm >> but we never were able to search ads for everybody else because we only focus on our own platform. So part of it is when the Cloud guys they're busy solving security for their Cloud. Google is not doing anything about Amazon Cloud or Microsoft Cloud, Microsoft's Azure, right? AWS is not doing anything about Google Cloud or Azure. So what we do is we don't have a Cloud. Our job in providing Cloud securities, be Switzerland make sure it works consistently across every Cloud. Now if you try to replicate what we offer Prisma Cloud, by using AWS, Azure and GCP, you'd have to first of all, have three panes of glass for all three of them. But even within them they have four panes of glass for the capabilities we offer. So you could end up with 12 different interfaces to manage a development process, we give you one. Now you tell me which is better. >> Dave: Sounds like a super Cloud to me Lisa (laughing) >> He's big on super Cloud >> Uber Cloud, there you >> Hey I like that, Uber Cloud. Well, so I want to understand Nikesh, what's realistic. You mentioned in your keynote Dave, brought it up that the average organization has 30 to 50 tools, security tools. >> Nikesh: Yes, yes >> On their network. What is realistic for from a consolidation perspective where Palo Alto can come in and say, let me make this consistent and simple for you. >> Well, I'll give you your own example, right? (clears throat) We're probably sub 10 substantively, right? There may be small things here and there we do. But on a substantive protecting the enterprise perspective you be should be down to eight or 10 vendors, and that is not perfect but it's a lot better than 50, >> Lisa: Right? >> because don't forget 50 tools means you have to have capability to understand what those 50 tools are doing. You have to have the capability to upgrade them on a constant basis, learn about their new capabilities. And I just can't imagine why customers have two sets of firewalls right. Now you got to learn both the files on how to deploy both them. That's silly because that's why we need 7 million more people. You need people to understand, so all these tools, who work for companies. If you had less tools, we need less people. >> Do you think, you know I wrote about this as well, that the security industry is anomalous and that the leader has, you know, single digit, low single digit >> Yes >> market shares. Do you think that you can change that? >> Well, you know, when I started that was exactly the observation I had Dave, which you highlighted in your article. We were the largest by revenue, by small margin. And we were one and half percent of the industry. Now we're closer to three, three to four percent and we're still at, you know, like you said, going to be around $7 billion. So I see a path for us to double from here and then double from there, and hopefully as we keep doubling and some point in time, you know, I'd like to get to double digits to start with. >> One of the things that I think has to happen is this has to grow dramatically, the ecosystem. I wonder if you could talk about the ecosystem and your strategy there. >> Well, you know, it's a matter of perspective. I think we have to get more penetrated in our largest customers. So we have, you know, 1800 of the top 2000 customers in the world are Palo Alto customers. But we're not fully penetrated with all our capabilities and the same customers set, so yes the ecosystem needs to grow, but the pandemic has taught us the ecosystem can grow wherever they are without having to come to Vegas. Which I don't think is a bad thing to be honest. So the ecosystem is growing. You are seeing new players come to the ecosystem. Five years ago you didn't see a lot of systems integrators and security. You didn't see security offshoots of telecom companies. You didn't see the Optivs, the WWTs, the (indistinct) of the world (coughs) make a concerted shift towards consolidation or services and all that is happening >> Dave: Mm >> as we speak today in the audience you will find people from Google, Amazon Microsoft are sitting in the audience. People from telecom companies are sitting in the audience. These people weren't there five years ago. So you are seeing >> Dave: Mm >> the ecosystem's adapting. They're, they want to be front and center of solving the customer's problem around security and they want to consolidate capability, they need. They don't want to go work with a hundred vendors because you know, it's like, it's hard. >> And the global system integrators are key. I always say they like to eat at the trough and there's a lot of money in security. >> Yes. >> Dave: (laughs) >> Well speaking of the ecosystem, you had Thomas Curry and Google Cloud CEO in your fireside chat in the keynote. Talk a little bit about how Google Cloud plus Palo Alto Networks, the Zero Trust Partnership and what it's enable customers to achieve. >> Lisa, that's a great question. (clears his throat) Thank you for bringing it up. Look, you know the, one of the most fundamental shifts that is happening is obviously the shift to the Cloud. Now when that shift fully, sort of, takes shape you will realize if your network has changed and you're delivering everything to the Cloud you need to go figure out how to bring the traffic to the Cloud. You don't have to bring it back to your data center you can bring it straight to the Cloud. So in that context, you know we use Google Cloud and Amazon Cloud, to be able to carry our traffic. We're going from a product company to a services company in addition, right? Cuz when we go from firewalls to SASE we're not carrying your traffic. When we carry our traffic, we need to make sure we have underlying capability which is world class. We think GCP and AWS and Azure run some of the biggest and best networks in the world. So our partnership with Google is such that we use their public Cloud, we sit on top of their Cloud, they give us increased enhanced functionality so that our customers SASE traffic gets delivered in priority anywhere in the world. They give us tooling to make sure that there's high reliability. So you know, we partner, they have Beyond Corp which is their version of Zero Trust which allows you to take unmanaged devices with browsers. We have SASE, which allows you to have managed devices. So the combination gives our collective customers the ability for Zero Trust. >> Do you feel like there has to be more collaboration within the ecosystem, the security, you know, landscape even amongst competitors? I mean I think about Google acquires Mandiant. You guys have Unit 42. Should and will, like, Wendy Whitmore and maybe they already are, Kevin Mandia talk more and share more data. If security's a data problem is all this data >> Nikesh: Yeah look I think the industry shares threat data, both in private organizations as well as public and private context, so that's not a problem. You know the challenge with too much collaboration in security is you never know. Like you know, the moment you start sharing your stuff at third parties, you go out of Secure Zone. >> Lisa: Mm >> Our biggest challenge is, you know, I can't trust a third party competitor partner product. I have to treat it with as much suspicion as anything else out there because the only way I can deliver Zero Trust is to not trust anything. So collaboration in Zero Trust are a bit of odds with each other. >> Sounds like another problem you can solve >> (laughs) >> Nikesh last question for you. >> Yes >> Favorite customer or example that you think really articulates the value of what Palo Alto was delivering? >> Look you know, it's a great question, Lisa. I had this seminal conversation with a customer and I explained all those things we were talking about and the customer said to me, great, okay so what do I need to do? I said, fun, you got to trust me because you know, we are on a journey, because in the past, customers have had to take the onus on themselves of integrating everything because they weren't sure a small startup will be independent, be bought by another cybersecurity company or a large cybersecurity company won't get gobbled up and split into pieces by private equity because every one of the cybersecurity companies have had a shelf life. So you know, our aspiration is to be the evergreen cybersecurity company. We will always be around and we will always tackle innovation and be on the front line. So the customer understood what we're doing. Over the last three years we've been working on a transformation journey with them. We're trying to bring them, or we have brought them along the path of Zero Trust and we're trying to work with them to deliver this notion of reducing their meantime to remediate from days to minutes. Now that's an outcome based approach that's a partnership based approach and we'd like, love to have more and more customers of that kind. I think we weren't ready to be honest as a company four and a half years ago, but I think today we're ready. Hence my keynote was called The Perfect Storm. I think we're at the right time in the industry with the right capabilities and the right ecosystem to be able to deliver what the industry needs. >> The perfect storm, partners, customers, investors, employees. Nikesh, it's been such a pleasure having you on theCUBE. Thank you for coming to talk to Dave and me right after your keynote. We appreciate that and we look forward to two days of great coverage from your executives, your customers, and your partners. Thank you. >> Well, thank you for having me, Lisa and Dave and thank you >> Dave: Pleasure >> for what you guys do for our industry. >> Our pleasure. For Nikesh Arora and Dave Vellante, I'm Lisa Martin, you're watching theCUBE live at MGM Grand Hotel in Las Vegas, Palo Alto Ignite 22. Stick around Dave and I will be joined by our next guest in just a minute. (cheerful music plays out)
SUMMARY :
brought to you by Palo Alto Networks. Dave, it's great to be here. I like to call it cuz Nikesh, great to have you on theCube. You said that, you know and the right tooling and and you heard that strategy, So Dave, you know, it's interesting And if you look at IBM How is it that you have been able to, First and foremost, you know, of, you know of innovations. Lubens is a, you know you were mentioning your for many organizations to achieve. and the people we have, So speaking of firewalls, I got to ask you I mean you mentioned and then, you know our that is do you even have to, Well, you know, this So you need consistency in data, and Amazon. so that's great question. and we decided to go process, we give you one. that the average organization and simple for you. Well, I'll give you You have to have the Do you think that you can change that? and some point in time, you know, I wonder if you could So we have, you know, 1800 in the audience you will find because you know, it's like, it's hard. And the global system and Google Cloud CEO in your So in that context, you security, you know, landscape Like you know, the moment I have to treat it with as much suspicion for you. and the customer said to me, great, okay Thank you for coming Arora and Dave Vellante,

Google Next 2019 Show Analysis | Google Cloud Next 2019
>> fly from San Francisco. It's the Cube covering Google Cloud next nineteen Tio by Google Cloud and its ecosystem partners. >> Welcome back, everyone live coverage here in San Francisco for the Cube, Google Cloud next twenty nineteen to show around Cloud, Google Cloud, I'm John Forest Do Minimum and Dave along. We've been here all week, three days of wall to wall coverage here on the floor with all the exhibitors. Write the mean all the action we've talked to all the thought leaders, Google executives, entrepreneurs, experts are in the cloud and around the ecosystem. Dave's stew wrapping up the wrap up segment. Kind of can I put the show to rest and look to next year and possibly Google summits. There's one in New York and some other shows we're looking to also cover. But if you look encapsulate the show, I want to get your guys reaction, too. What the main themes have been, we're seeing obviously anthems was the big news. That's the big deal. That's their platform. They want to bring all the connective tissue around data security and really on prim hybrid cloud multi cloud application modernization. Clearly, during my open source and enterprise developers, plus the ability to hybrid and multi cloud stew. Your thoughts on the show. >> Yeah. So, John, you know, when I first saw Antos, I was like, Well, this is CSP that they announced last year We were excited about that talk about things like Azure Stack and eight of us Outpost. But the more I learn about it, the more I understand it. It's more than just kind of g k e and a little bit of packaging here, Eric for David. I just interviewed a Google fellow and, you know, you expect the the Google Fellow to really be able to articulate, You know, the history of Google and the distributor architect doing is like we're going to enable cloud native. Of course, we always had that in the Google Cloud, but now we're going to make that easier for you to do that in your own environment. So when you're thinking about modernizing your applications, you know, I was a little bit tough on Google when I said, Oh, I hear a lot about lift and shift. Well, most customers can't lifted, shifted, not change, because then I'LL pull it back. It's too expensive, but if I could modernize wherever it makes the most sense. I talked to some customers here that said, Look, I need to kick the team and get it into the cloud And then I could modernize and start falling apart. But for someone customers, I can't move that. And they need to modernize it here and that Antos is the key enabler and therefore it's a good message, its extension of what they done with Cuba. Netease. That's a lot of other pieces here. But you know, I'm pretty impressed. >> They want to get your thoughts is one of things I'm seeing and, you know, in sports they wanna team, plays a game and wins. They call it a statement game. I think Google Cloud next twenty nineteen is a statement by Google saying, We're into the enterprise. We're not goingto waiver. We got hired Thomas Curry and mid savory. They're going to keep all the great talent. No one's believing. It's not like a new regime. Change came in. They're pivoting. They knows there's no pivot here. They put a stake in the ground saying we are going to invest in the clouds soon. DARPA Kai, the CEO of Google said that on stage of day one, they're clearly putting all the window dressing around enterprise with all the great phrases that we love. Digital transformation, data centric architecture, multi cloud hybrid monitors that applications They're invested, Dave. They are in it to play. They recognize that they're not gonna win right away because it's a long game. So Google clearly is playing the cards properly. They're saying, Look, if we're going to bring a lot of the table and this long time table, but we're in it to play and we're going to play well when invest. >> Yeah, I think it took a while for me to get there Stew, too. He is. I heard a lot about what Right we do get a global distributed infrastructure or we're doing the applications for digital transformation. We got industry specific solutions. Is what way d'Oh. Okay. Great. And I heard a lot of you know differentiators are unique value proposition. So, for civil, what I would have liked to hear it right up front was okay. We know that eighty percent of your workloads are on Prem. Well, guess what, and we're investing in scale and all that stuff, but We're the best at cloud native and and we're going to take and we have the tools and expertise. We're gonna bring those to you on your premises and show you how to get there. And then when you're ready, come to the cloud. If you're never ready, that's fine. But we're going to earn the right for your future business. Hey said that Stead that >> right way, the things we're wondering your business. But I don't think they can yet say were the best that cloud native and that I think that's that's still good self awareness studio for Google. >> I think they could say it now. Maybe it's debatable. >> I would debate that I do not think that Google is the best cloud native cloud at this point. I don't think they have the breath and depth Amazon has, but I don't think that that's the hard core stick in the ground. Because Cloud native is early cnc F, they're investing heavily in open source is a big bet that they're talking about. They got a lot more work to do but cloud needed. Still, it's still early because you said the workloads is still on premise for most of the enterprises, so we got plenty of time. The point is, if they had overplayed that card, I would have been more cautious. >> Well, I mean, Okay, fine, huh? Let's talk talk about that a little bit because it's new. It's Would you? Would you disagree that internally, Google's got the most sophisticated, the best cloud in the world internally, globally for Google. And they make that comment when they make that claim, right? That start there, we get the best cloud in the world. Yeah, >> well, I think it's got a great cloud, >> too. Okay, so there's stuff on there. I mean, they've got least got some credibility there, so I would have come from that position straight now. The other criticism I heard was where the numbers. Now, that doesn't bother me so much. How long did it take Amazon to show us the numbers? Nine years? I think so. Good. We'LL get there, it's clear it's growing. You look around here. There's what thirty thirty five thousand people don't know what was there last year. Twenty. Twenty five thousand. It's growing, it's growing nicely and the quality of the people is good. >> Here's what I'd say about Google Cloud Steward? Let's get your reaction. Sudhir has Bay said this. He's the director product. Mentioning about cloud fusion, he said This from a customer quote. Google's cloud is like an awesome highway, but I can't get my car on the road. So that's the on ramp. >> I can't get by giving car. Okay, so so this note about you Look at the >> technology from Spanner Cooper duties, which was founded inside Google. And they did that right. Big queries. Amazing. They have freaking amazing tech because they had to do it for Google. So I think that is a key strategy. And I, like other clouds that have come in and then died away, didn't have a lot of tech chops. So Cultural Shift is one of the big teams, but on ramping, getting people on board and the bed another source. I think there's a gestation period that's gives Google some time. I don't think they gotta have it overnight there some table stakes, but they're there checking the boxes just kind of grind it out. >> I mean, look, the critique has been for years is you know, Google's too smart for all of us. you know, way have love reading the papers and were really impressed with the technology. But the term you heard over and over again this week, we're going to meet customers where they are. And I I almost failed. They dialled it down a little too much here because I didn't have anything that I'm like. Wow, blown away. Like, you know, they had er's up on stage and it's like I'm used to seeing him flying out of a plane with a Google glass on his head. >> I was started by the way that was Google. I o like, you're >> gay. But, you know, you know, one of that's what you expect from a googol is you know, some of those pieces and there wasn't a G wow amazing moment for me, but the messaging solid, they absolutely you know, understanding or solving some real customer problems today and, you know, solid >> well and one hundred percent of the cloud providers now have a coherent and explainable hybrid on Prem strategy. You know, frankly, it's about time. I mean, they were denying that for a long time, and I think it's clear that's where the business is >> well to me. The big criteria on the cloud game is Do they have the global footprint? They do. Do they have the software at scale Check? Do they have the connective tissue to bring these disparity opportunity data services together Check working on it, continue to improve. And are they on the philosophy side of things? Meaning one of things that I am made Amazon really great. Wass they from day one. We're a P I center who will always has been part of web services. So they have that DNA. I think apogee is going to be the secret little dark horse. And all this is going to tell Signe because as a p, I become programmable. You saw Sisko of'em wear on stage. Can they build on ecosystem? Can they work with multiple vendors? Because the fact is, from our data and we've been reporting on this on silicon angle and Wiki bomb is that big enterprises and governments, whether it's a d, o. D. Or a big bank, are gonna have hundreds of cloud projects, hundreds of workloads that's going to require unique clouds selection criteria because you cannot separate real time data from software, and that's just the facts of the databases are moving all over the place. If I gotta work Lodi, any data? I gotta be agile with the data, but I then need a data plane to connect across other workload. So workload conversation, I don't think was front and center enough where workloads are for the key criteria. >> And still some of the message on where Google fits in that hybrid and multi cloud world is a little bit muddy to me. So how did they get, you know, on those in your data center? Well, it's a deep partnership with V m where, uh, you know, I heard some people here. It's like, Oh, well, the current Amazon VM wear deal, you know, is like up for renewal soon. It's like I don't see Veum Where an Amazon separating that Latino way. People engineering partnerships. We've heard directly from Andy Jazz sees talked about on the Cube how important that relationship is. S O Veum was going to play across all the cloud environment. But you know, where does Google, you know, really make their money? They're going to partner with all the open source companies. And you know, you're going to own your data. We're going to make sure the prophecies there. So is Dave Said the numbers and the business of how Google Khun start slow scaling and really growing the enterprise business beyond, you know, G sweets now, part of it. And we saw some of the android for enterprise, and they have lots of pieces, but the cloud revenue gets a little bit muddy like a Microsoft. So, you know, from the cloud piece itself, I'm not sure where you know they start gaining on a Microsoft or an Amazon today. >> Well, I think that they could gain ground, take territories. That said on on Day one, Jennifer Linds, demo of no code modification, migration of workloads. If that actually happens, that's going to be a critical piece of the pie that's going to move. Move the needle very quickly for at Google. But I >> want to get you >> guys take on surprises. What surprised you here at the show? What was something that you didn't expect happen? That was a surprise on a good way. To me, the big surprise is that the word customer was used a lot more here than ever before. Customer is the key to success in the enterprise, listening to customer and customer choice. That's the playbook from Amazon. You don't hear Andy Jassy or any other executive Amazon go three words without saying the word customer. If you had a tag cloud and be like customers, the biggest font here we've heard customer choice. That's been a big one for me. >> Surprises. I was going to say when you were asking that question to get to me. It was customer related as well. You know clearly when you in Amazon show it's just customer. Just get inundated with a cool injection of customers. It's very impressive, but you don't have that scale here. However, What did see is a lot of Fortune. One thousand company's senior people were here. Yeah, still kicking the tires but learning. And I think that usually leads to something. So I think Google's developing a lot of pipeline at this show that I think next year is going to translate. We had conversations John with companies that we can't mention on air, but they are seriously substantively looking at moving workloads into Google's Cloud Number one. Number two is if you look around here, Deloitte, Accenture at toes. You know, some of the biggest. I'd like to see more of those global s eyes, and I think you will. And that's where you're going to really start to see customers. >> Dave took the customer. I'll say partner. So we said in one of our analysis segments, that logo slides Good. But, you know, compare itto Microsoft or Amazon. It needs to quadruple where it is today. But in the conversations that I had from startups through some of those big logo's on here, partnering with Google is good for them and they're excited by it. And that's not necessarily the clay case for every one of the big cloud providers out there. >> All right, so a lot of multi cloud talk. I've said multi clouds all the rage, but it's really more a symptom of sort of multi vendor people going best of breed with different departments. Big news last night on Jet I John, I want to get your take. Google really wasn't I don't think ever in the running, but certainly, you know Amazon was the lead Oracle, IBM, Microsoft share the news in your analysis of that news. >> Well, yesterday there was news that the Department of Defense, this Jet I contract joint defense initiative that's going on joining the Price Defense Initiative system. The military cloud ten billion dollar contract was under a lot of It's the biggest story in Tech and DC in generations. It's the confluence of procurement being outdated. Clouds selection, one soul cloud for that workload, multi cloud across in the department and a lot of lost business, potentially for Oracle in IBM. So Amazon, Microsoft, Amazon, Webster's, Microsoft, Oracle and IBM. We're all fighting for this business. The incumbents IBM and Oracle. We're potentially at risk billions of dollars. So it's been a lot of dirty pool, so to speak, a lot of dirty politics, a lot of dirty smear campaigns going on, from Oracle to to Amazon to try to discredit them. So the D. O d. Oracle soothe d o d. Saying is unfair process conflict of interest? The D. O. D made a final selection. Amazon Web services and Microsoft are the final selections and basically kicking out Oracle and IBM at the process. So Oracle, IBM are out. Oracle's lawsuit's still pending that'LL probably be dismissed because Oracle tried three different times to claim conflict of interest. They tried to claim conflict of interest in. And where has three in my notes here July twenty eighteen, November twenty eighteen and April twenty nineteen. All three times competition has been not proven, and Oracle and IBM or out. The analysis here is, is that this proves what we've been saying on the Q and that is, is that you can have one cloud soul cloud for a workload. So the Department of Defense has hundreds of projects. But for the military project that ten billion dollar one Amazon or Microsoft, probably the Amazon to the front runner can serve that cloud. And that's the best architecture. That means that Microsoft will probably win the eight billion dollar contract of the D. O. E s contract for collaboration again. Soul Cloud Soul workload. This is the trendy. My analysis is that Oracle on IBM, mainly Oracle, knew that they were going to lose. They tried to do whatever it takes to kill the deal. And now the D. O. D. Has brought forward and their modernizing the application and all these lawsuits about procurement rules from nineteen eighty five all this trip wires, all these little nuances. This is a great win for the Department of Defense, and I think it is a tell sign for large enterprises because you could be multiple. You'd have multiple clouds, but you can have one cloud work on one workload. It could be a big monster workload like a ten billion dollar >> workload. >> There could be a small work. >> All the tech vendors want to eat it. The government trough, We know that. And so the why is this relevant? It's relevant to me because you're you're absolutely right for a particular set of workloads. Mission critical workloads, especially a single cloud, is going to be more cost effective, more secure, uh, higher availability, less complex. And that's really what the debate is here now is multi cloud gonna happen? Of course, for different workloads is going to be horses for courses. So multi cloud is a huge opportunity. Everybody's going after it stew uh, Google through its hat in the ring in a big way. We seem to have a couple of camps lining up and read. Had interesting, interesting leads in both camps. Kind of got the IBM redhead camp and of'em wear with now with Google Really interesting sort of chessboard matches going on? >> Yeah, absolutely. Every customer we talked to hear. There's no like, Oh, you know, I might be moving most of my stuff or even all of my stuff to the public cloud, but it is workload dependent, and that's how I'm choosing it. Google has some key strength. I took a little while to get the data and I and ML pieces that we know Google has some strength here. One of the questions I had coming into it Can they reclaim kind of that thought leadership space. I'd love to hear whether you guys think I think that was the case, but, you know, messaging point on good speed. You know T K has them talking to the Enterprise in a way that won't scare them away as to oh, geez, I'm not smart enough to work with Google so >> well, I think I think Google has to get enterprise compatible and they've been working really hard to do that, and they got it. Just grind it out. I said this on Tuesday. It's a grinding out game. They've got a got a fight to the trenches. We've got to get the check boxes, and this is what Amazon did that early on and helped them a lot. Google has been working hard, I think, their security angle with the from a device. I phoned the Android phone and onboard security at the edge is huge. I think data and Big Query and those kinds of on boarding tools is going to be a great accelerant. I think cloud code cloud Run Cloud build is a phenomenal construct. I think that's absolutely delivered Ella for friendly. If they can continue to serve the developer for the enterprise and make it easy to build and stand up applications that hit that sweet spot of the trend, which is the modernization of enterprise APS not develop, perhaps not like a startup started sort. Different styles are cloud born in the cloud enterprise that's gonna deal with legacy and all these compliance and all this risk. They could make that easy and make it Dev ops like That's a great check boxes. >> Just a quick note on that, because there was a lot of enterprise talk there. There's a nice group inside a Google, working with a lot of the startups, got to talk to a couple of the start up there, and Google's definitely company there looking to partner with. All >> right, guys, let's wrap this up. Google really leaning into the enterprise heavily. Obviously, they're not. They're not blinking. They're going to continue power forward thinking. I like the mojo they have here. They got a new CEO. We interviewed George Curry, and Thomas's brother Thomas couldn't make it on the Cube. He's super busy talking to customers were gonna get him on the cue soon, but you got a culture here. Google and the culture is innovation, and the cultures Dev ops. The culture's developed for the country's AP eyes D. That puts him in a good position, >> their thoughts. I mean, I've been saying for a decade I feel like a broken record. I said it so much. I stopped saying it that the marginal economics of the Cloud service providers who have scale are driving towards zero. In other words, the more volume they do, they're there. The cost of adding an extra customer goes down to zero, just like software. There's three companies in United States who have that scale Google, Amazon and Microsoft. Obviously some guys outside the U. S. And you look at the cap Ex numbers forty seven billion over the last three years by Google. Thirteen and a half billion year to date US data centers alone. It would take IBM three and a half years to spend that much on Affects Who take Oracle six years. Okay, they just do not have the marginal economics to compete. They'LL compete in other ways, but though these three are in it to win it this big market, they're trillion dollar market. There's enough room for each to carve out an opportunity and continue to grow for quite some time. Do >> and Google lining up their ecosystem of partners to help them get deep into the enterprise. Absolutely, There's good opportunity for Google to do a number of acquisitions. They have, you know, a big bank spend a lot of money not just on infrastructure, but all the partner engagements and definitely some acquisition to help them get there. Wouldn't be surprised if they, you know, made some nice acquisition to help them grow that enterprise. I am in a modern way way now that was mentioned to it was carrying twins could be back together, but sure, >> awesome stuff. Guys, I think my my final take is I've always said Google's the Dark Horse and the Cloud game. They don't have a lot of baggage like a lot of work to do, and they're they're working hard and they really bring in tech to the table that bringing that culture of innovation, they're there behind this. Opportunities for them to move the ball down the field in a big way. I think they can take territory and gain share quickly if global things follow the place. If those bets come home, this dark horse will be right up on number two really quickly. So great job. Wanna thank Google, Google's team Cool calms Team, Google's CMO and executive Thomas carrying for letting us come to the Cube. Bring the Cube here. Google's very co creation oriented. We appreciate the location. I want to thank Google one. Thanks to our sponsors about our sponsors, we wouldn't be here, so he city signal FX. We got net app. We got Saada. We got some great clients here supporting us. You, Fio. Thanks to our sponsors, they signal to the community they care and they support our programs. Our tenth year of Cube coverage at events one. Thank everyone for watching, listening, sharing hit us up on Twitter at Cube and also silken angle dot com. We now are adding on a new feature to our Cube, which is on silicon angle dot com special reports where we flow as many stories as it takes to get the truth out there. Get the story's right, of course. Used the cube and stream the data with you here on the Cube. We're here. Google Next in San Francisco. I'm John Faria student Min David Long. Thanks for watching.
SUMMARY :
It's the Cube covering Kind of can I put the show to rest and You know, the history of Google and the distributor architect doing is like we're going to enable cloud native. So Google clearly is playing the cards properly. We're gonna bring those to you on your premises But I don't think they can yet say were the best that cloud I think they could say it now. I don't think they have the breath and depth Amazon has, but I don't think that that's the hard core stick in the ground. the best cloud in the world internally, globally for Google. It's growing, it's growing nicely and the quality of the people is good. Google's cloud is like an awesome highway, but I can't get my car on the road. note about you Look at the So Cultural Shift is one of the big teams, I mean, look, the critique has been for years is you know, Google's too smart for all of us. I was started by the way that was Google. but the messaging solid, they absolutely you know, understanding or solving some real customer I mean, The big criteria on the cloud game is Do they have the global footprint? So is Dave Said the numbers and the business of how Move the needle very quickly for at Customer is the key to success in the enterprise, I was going to say when you were asking that question to get to me. And that's not necessarily the clay case for every one of the big cloud in the running, but certainly, you know Amazon was the lead Oracle, IBM, probably the Amazon to the front runner can serve that cloud. And so the why is this relevant? One of the questions I had coming into it Can they reclaim kind of that thought the developer for the enterprise and make it easy to build and stand looking to partner with. I like the mojo they have here. I stopped saying it that the marginal economics of the Cloud service providers who have scale a big bank spend a lot of money not just on infrastructure, but all the partner engagements and definitely some Used the cube and stream the data with you here on the Cube.

theCUBE Insights with Corey Quinn, The Duckbill Group | Google Cloud Next 2019
>> fly from San Francisco. It's the Cube covering Google Cloud next nineteen Tio by Google Cloud and its ecosystem partners. >> Okay, welcome back, everyone here. Live Cube coverage in San Francisco for Google Clouds Conference call Google Next twenty nineteen. Hashtag Google next nineteen. I'm John for us to meet him in and Dave along with a special Cuban sites. Guess Cory Quinn, Cloud a calm said Duck Bill Group will also be filling in as a host on the Cube at a variety of Cloud native shows. Corey, welcome back to the Cube. Good to see you again. Thanks for coming >> on. Great to see me again. Thank you for having me >> and still you looking beautiful. Brilliant is always Dave. You're handsome. Okay, we're here in the Cube, breaking it down our guys. Seriously, let's let's let's wrap this up real quick. And then we'LL get into some of the fun conversations around some of the observations. But Day one's over. Clearly, Anthos is not just the rebrand. Although the CMO clearly talked about how wow has done that, they want to add more stuff into it. So that's the big topic here. We saw the migration tool and those migrate and then a lot of sun apogee here. AP eyes thoughts on Day one. >> Yes, eso John Anthos. I'm still trying to squint through it a little bit, and it's it's more than just Cooper Netease. We know that Google has a strong position, and being the open cloud is they've been saying for a couple of years. But you know what? Air these services who? The partners, How is this different from the, You know, dozens of Cooper, Nettie says. Solutions that are out there. So there's great buzz here at the show, Really good attendance here. A lot of really smart people. So we expect that coming off Google show So good start Day one. It was really excited to dig with you on some of the answers stuff as well as some of the surveillance pieces, which I've got some commentary on >> our partner and Chan sent a lot of time on the state. Duggan Cory, I know you've been putting in your ear the ground. What's happening? What do you see what he reporting? What have you collected? The >> I think one of the biggest things that I'm seeing in this entire conference to date has been almost a mind shift change. I mean, this is conferences called Google Next, and for a long time that's been one of the biggest problems. They're focusing on what's next rather than what is today, and they're inventing the future to almost at the expense of the present. I think the big messaging today was both about reassuring enterprises that yes, they're serious about this and also building a narrative where there now talking about coming at this from a position of being able to embrace customers where they are and speak their language? I think that that's transformative for Google. And it's something I don't think that we've seen them do seriously, at least not for very long. >> Dave. We've been talking about this all the time. Do they have the enterprise? Charles. We've been following the new team. When Diane Greene came in here to put the pieces together, it was a tough job. She had. They put the pieces together. But as Cory's pointing out, some one's like they're growing up now, saying Okay, we gotta realize that customers matter, not just addict attack or the future. This has been an Amazon playbook, customer, customer, customer and build a product. Customers. It seems to be your thoughts on this. >> Well, so I think Corey made a good point is they're always looking at the future. And if you want to get beyond search male and maps, I got to solve a problem today. And I'm not sure exactly like you said Stew. What problem Anthos is solving. I think it may still be a little early for this multi cloud management, but I think it is coming, you know, look, to think about how Amazon talks. Well, we're gonna eliminate heavy lifting. Microsoft clearly is got a software, a state that they could help you connect, you know, Oracle. Same. Same who? Google. It's always been about the tech and the future, and they're starting to get there, but still about to me, the tech and the future. >> It's a tragic Corey. I remember. I believe you were quoted in ah. News article recently is that Amazon listens to customers and Google historically talks to customers and tells them this is the way you should be doing it with a new Google. Now, >> I don't know. I don't think you change anything. Is biggest Google overnight. I think that there's a long story tradition of the Google engineer being the smartest person in the room. Just ask them. I'm kidding. You won't have to ask them. They're going to tell you on prompted. And I think that has to change because fundamentally addressing developers is a great way of building traction. It's a great way of getting to where they tend to be. But developers generally do not sign fifty million dollar deals. Well, more than once anyway. >> Well, this is a good point. This pretty customer attraction, which I think they've shown chops for the work they're doing that cnc f with continued open source. Great. But then when you got to go support the open source when you got to start putting lays together, this is where you start to get into procurement. Some requirements operations, security, a whole new level of grinding it out. I mean, the enterprise is a grind it out game. Google now has to go down that road stew. Dave, Corey, do you think they're ready? You think they're ready to grind it out? >> Way talked about in our kickoff this morning. Partnerships are critical and they had a bunch of really good ones up on stage this morning. You know, Cisco, VM wear some good ones to hang your hat on. You know, I would like to see more from an application standpoint as to where they sent him then they But you >> know, there's no question. I mean, I think there's an emphatic yes. Why? Because they got the global scale. They got the world's biggest cloud. They get a ton of dough. You know, we always say, though the best tech doesn't always win, and that's true. But usually the best tech runs out of money or they give up. You know, I don't see that happening in, >> Well, it's in the >> midterm or even semi long term for Google. So So I do think they have the chops to grind it out. >> I mean, I think they have attack. I've always said that love some of their tech, but they try to force Google Tech down the enterprise throats over the years. And I think Diane Green realized that that was the start of seeing real product management shop start to come in some of the work that they know they gotta get down and dirty on But to me it's a story that matters. The story has to be there. I think we're starting to see here, at least from my observation story of customers. So get in salt, create value, think this whole positioning of we want to be the open cloud where they say, Oh, you want to negotiate your contracts Don't want lock in You want developer productivity and you want operations I think it's a smart play by Google Stew. I think that's a good move. And again there, the dark horse in this. They don't have a lot to lose by going changing the game, changing the rules. Amazon, certainly in the lead, has a lot to lose, but they're so far ahead. Google just kind of catch up pretty quickly if they make the right moves. >> T K is making a lot of the right moves, but there's only so much it can be done so quickly. When you wind up in a story like we're seeing right now with customers who are taking workloads and haven't really been touched in there on from environments since nineteen ninety eight and they're migrating them into a GP environment and GPS formal deprecation Policy says We'LL give you one year's notice before turning anything off once it goes, g et. That's no time at all For an enterprise. Wait, we might have to move again. Absolutely not. It's still a language >> A C enterprise's years just to figure out Should we move? And where do we dio >> exactly their enterprise to go out of business and some of their divisions wouldn't know for five >> years. So is Google. What's what's the reaction when you press them on this, >> uh, usually starts with well, actually, And then they breathe and they reach for a whiteboard to show me exactly why I'm wrong. And then I lose interest and wander off, at which point they realized, Wow, you have no attention span for anything. Would you like to work here? And so far no dice, but we'LL see. >> So that's it. Well, that's a good business model, right? I think. Still your reaction to that? I mean, yeah, I read that they support rail For what? A deck like zillions of years. Right. This is what an example of how an enterprise needs to behave. >> Well, right, John Thie question we've had for a number of years is, you know, can cos b'more googly on DH. You know, the message here seems to be more. We're going to meet you where we are. We're going to be able to work with you on that. But there's some of those underlying things that Cory brings out that that need to change here. So that's a big change for Google. >> So what is the story that we heard from from Thomas carrying today? He said, Hybrid cloud Mina multi cloud, consistent framework with standard infrastructure in a platform to secure and manage data across the enterprise. Okay, sounds good. A lot of work to be done there. If you think about I mean, look at Amazon hybrid guard. If you announce outposts doesn't shift till later this year, it's a one small slice. There's got to be partnerships. There's gotta be an ecosystem to deliver on those three components of the vision on the story, and I say there's a lot of work to be done there now. What I do like about it is I do think that that multi cloud is a problem. I don't think thus far from most enterprises, it's a strategy I think it's if in multi vendor and so it will become a problem. The question I have is who's going to be in the best position to solve that problem? And you pointed out today still, well, Google has got VM wears a partner. Sisko is a partner. Red Hat as a partner. You know, IBM and Red Hat sort of lining up on that. Maybe service now tries to get into that game, but it's a wide open space. It's jump ball. >> Yeah, it's interesting. One of the things that I worry a little about and, you know, love. Corey's opinion on this is, you know, Google. Absolutely. If you talk about the container space, clear leadership, you know, first time I heard about containers, Google was front and center. They're leading this Cooper Netease march, but communities isn't magic, and even their server lis move movement. John and I interviewed Polly today, and it's very much, you know, Kay Native, we're going to take your containers and Goober Netease and extended service. That's not what I hear from you know, customers that I talked to today that are doing survivalists according what? What? What? What's your take there. >> I think that you sort of see almost the same problem emerging both with that narrative and the current multi cloud approach. It's It's not the fact that I can take this arbitrary code and Ronit anywhere that makes something server. Lis. We have a restaurant to run code or a raspberry pie or a burning dumpster with enterprise logo on the side of it that does. That isn't what's interesting. That isn't what delivers value to customers. It's the event model for starters, and I think right now that's not quite there. A lot of stuff. It's been announced and is coming out as we speak. And various block Post is still http endpoint activated, which means that you're not quite to an event model separately. What we're seeing with Anthos and the current approach to multicloud is you can deploy this to any cloud provider you'd like. Well, yes, in so far is a cloud provider to you is a bunch of disc, a pile of VMs and a network, and that's about it. That's not a cloud in the modern sense that is effectively outsourcing your data center and you'll find it runs on money pretty quickly. Once you start down that path, it's the higher level services, these renovations. >> This brings up a good point and that I think what I'm seeing and this is what I think, A lot of people, it's very aspirational. Views on Google People love Google. They love. They know about Google and they hope that they're as good as Amazon tomorrow. And let's just face it, Amazon is way out front. So I think this expectations for Google that are a little bit to hide. I think what I'm hearing the executives, at least the positive side would be. They understand where they are. I mean, the fact that we're not home on edge and I ot and all these other things, it means that they're still in foundational mode, in my opinion. So I mean, think about it. They're just getting their act together, building that foundational things. So I think they're cautious because we're not hearing about the eye ot. We're not hearing about some of the more advanced challenges that the enterprise is air. Having heard a little bit about from the sigh from a group that came on about data migration, Sata, Gata so OK, they got database at the Big Cloud. Big table, Big queer. OK, great stuff. Ml So data, certainly in their wheelhouse. But outside of that, I mean they're still foundational. So >> tomorrow's product day, though. So you know he may be here more there. I'm surprised they didn't hear more about machine intelligence. Give it. No, they talked about a little bit. But this company is the leader in a >> way. Maybe that's part of the issue. And I think that there is no question that when you want something far future that looks like robots from space Bill, you go to Google. You know that. I think there's a lot less of an awareness that Okay, I just need a bunch of the EMS to run somewhere, and I feel like that is more or less. It's a story of today, >> and you know Google. I mean, like their story. You know, I love the code cloud code, cloud run, cloud building. They have all the right. Like Jeff Bob's like linguistic that gets my attention. You get is kind of like it feels like it feels like they're really close. It's getting so >> far away. Cultures also extremely hard. You have a bunch of execs that have just shown up from Oracle seemingly yesterday in these terms, and there's a lot of knee jerk reactions of, Oh, Google is now taking on a bunch of Oracle approaches, like hiring sales people and talking to customers. That's not a bad thing. Meanwhile, the executives who come Teo out of Oracle after decades there and are now working at Google. We're having to adjust to a more rapid pace of innovation to this new world in which they have customers that don't actively hate. Um, and it's turning into a very different story for everyone involved. I'm curious to see what comes out of it, but it's still very much earlier, >> and I think they could build fast. Like you said, they like Google's. The parties like him. What they don't like about Google is responsiveness and being, you know, the white gloves they need. They need to have that kind of service ability. >> And Google also, by having a single overarching brand in the term of the word Google is their consumer efforts do wind up playing into people's perception of through the clouds like yes, we want Google to listen to us? No, not through our thermostats. >> Well, they got a lot of Regis developing. They got the footprint. Guys, great job student. Final comments. >> I mean, just you talk about the customer you've heard there was. You know, my comment. My comment on Twitter this morning that got the most reaction is you no question to retail or why are you choosing Google Cloud? Answer is, you're not Amazon, and you know, the long and short being the alternative to a leader in the market today. Not a bad thing. So Google has, you know, a good position at the market. They we always knew that they had great tak es o >> Also thing on that comments do is that I think in watching Google, I think I personally in critical of what they need to do more obviously. But they know their people are doing the work. I mean, you've got to grind it out to me. This is a grind it out game. It's on ly early. You gotta get the discipline up there. They got the right product management type chops and there Can they get those things done that Thomas Curry and, um, it's Avery can bring to the table and kind of shed the Oracle and put the New Jersey on and fight the battle with the new Google Way. That's going to be the tell Signe. >> Well, the hard part for me is it. So it's hard to measure. You see some logo's. You don't know what they're really buy. I mean, with them is on, you know, it's it's infrastructures of service. Microsoft. Okay, I'm not sure. How much is there Oracle? Clearly not sure, you know, etcetera. But so lookit Proof was talking to customers, right? Huh? How much they're actually adopting this stuff for riel Business problems. >> Yeah, not multi cloud if your infrastructure runs on a different cloud provider. But you're using g sweet. I mean that that's not really what people think of when they say multi cloud. But that is what analysts chalk it up as something >> it's a battle at least accomplishes lining up. You got Amazon, Microsoft, Google lying it up. It's the cube coverage wrapping it up with the team here day one of three days of wall to wall coverage. Stay with us. Go to the cube dot net the check out all the video silken angle dot com. We have a special report and a lot of constant flowing there, and we're back with more coverage tomorrow day, too. Thanks for watching.
SUMMARY :
It's the Cube covering Good to see you again. Thank you for having me Clearly, Anthos is not just the rebrand. It was really excited to dig with you on some of the answers stuff as well as some of the surveillance What have you collected? I think one of the biggest things that I'm seeing in this entire conference to date has been almost a mind matter, not just addict attack or the future. It's always been about the tech and the future, and they're starting to talks to customers and tells them this is the way you should be doing it with a new Google. And I think that has to change because fundamentally You think they're ready to grind it out? to where they sent him then they But you I mean, I think there's an emphatic yes. So So I do think they have the chops to grind And I think Diane Green realized that that was the start of seeing T K is making a lot of the right moves, but there's only so much it can be done so quickly. What's what's the reaction when you press them on this, And then I lose interest and wander off, at which point they realized, Wow, you have no attention span for anything. to that? We're going to be able to work with you on that. And you pointed out today still, well, Google has got VM wears One of the things that I worry a little about and, you know, love. and the current approach to multicloud is you can deploy this to any cloud provider I mean, the fact that we're not home on edge and I ot and all these other things, it means that they're still in foundational mode, So you know he may be here more there. And I think that there is no question that when you want something far future that looks You know, I love the code cloud code, cloud run, I'm curious to see what comes out of it, but it's still very much earlier, What they don't like about Google is responsiveness and being, you know, And Google also, by having a single overarching brand in the term of the word Google is their consumer They got the footprint. I mean, just you talk about the customer you've heard there was. and put the New Jersey on and fight the battle with the new Google Way.

Alison Wagonfeld, Google Cloud | Google Cloud Next 2019
>> fly from San Francisco. It's the Cube covering Google Club next nineteen, right Tio by Google Cloud and its ecosystem partners. >> Okay, welcome back, everyone. We are here live in San Francisco for cubes. Coverage of Google next twenty nineteen. Hashtag Google. Next nineteen, Google's Cloud Conference, where their customers, developers all come together Cubes. Three days of coverage. Day one. I'm John forward, my Coast, Dave Aloft as well. Astute many men Who's out there doing some reporter? Next guess Allison. Wagon filled is the CMO of Google Cloud. Great to see you. Thanks for joining us. >> Thanks for having me. I'm glad to be here, >> so I got to say, looking out on the floor here, we're in the middle of the floor. Great demographics. A lot of developers, lot of enterprise customers. A lot of you know, sea levels will also enterprise architects and cloud architects. So this is not just a developer fest. This is a business developer conference. >> Yes. So that's been a real change this year. Not only have we increase the numbers I think I mentioned earlier that we have thirty thousand people are actually able even more than that. We had a cap registration we sold out last week. But the composition is different this year because this year we have over seventy percent from enterprise companies and then within enterprise Cos it's Dev's decision makers, business leaders. And then we have a whole executive track of leader Circle program as well. So it's been a really great mix of different energy, different questions in different sessions. >> You guys do a great job in event kudos to the team original Google Io was a great event that continues to be the consumer side on Google. You guys have that same kind of grew swing going on a lot of sessions. Take him in to explain the theme of the show. What's going on around the events? Breakouts? What's the focus? >> Yes, so the focus? Well, there's a theme and a couple different levels. The broad theme is a cloud like no other, because we've introduced a lot of new, different features and products and programs. We introduced Antos this morning, which was really revolutionary way of using containers broadly multi cloud, high but cloud. So it's from a product standpoint, but it's also a cloud like no other, because it's about the community that's here, and it's truly a partnership with our customers and our partners about building this cloud together, and we see the community as a really key part of that. It's really corta Google's values around openness, open source technology and really embracing the broader community to build the cloud together. >> And I thought was interesting. The Kino was phenomenal. You had the CEO of Google come out Sundar Pichai and the new CEO on the job for ten weeks. T K >> Sommers. Korean. Yes. Lot of action >> going on a Google right now. >> Yeah, it's been great to have Thomas. Diane was phenomenal and building the business. It's wonderful. Have Sundar here. He's got a lot of commitment, really engaged with our customers. And so it's a lot of energy and a lot of excitement. A Google. >> I thought the vory class act of Thomas Curry and his first words on stage at the CEO was to give props. The Diane Green very, very respected, that was >> great, was very gracious of, Thomas >> said. Sorry, he said. The press, sir, that one of things I really like about Google is not afraid of hard problems, So I wanted to ask you a CMO I always asked the most about brand promise. What's the brand promise? That you want customers and the community to take away from an event like this? >> So the brand promise has a couple different areas. First and foremost, we want our customers to be successful with their customers. And so we think, really holistically about lessons. Make sure that we're delivering the cloud technologies so that customers can really serve everyone that they want to serve, whether it be a retailer that wants to create a wonderful, offline and online experience, whether it's a health care provider that wants to ensure that every doctor, it knows all of the right data about all the patients or within a hospital. And so that's the way we're always thinking is how do we ensure that we help our customers set up to be successful? >> So one of the big teams we heard this morning was the industry focus, and you just referenced that again. It seems to be an increasingly important part of the messaging and the technologies that you're creating, and it ties into digital transformation. You seeing every industry transform data is at the heart of that transformation. You're seeing big companies traverse different industries. So what if you could talk about the industry focus? Uh, where'd that come from? Where do you see it going? >> Yes, So there's really three core parts of what we've been talking about today. First and foremost is the infrastructure and ensuring that we have the world's best infrastructure. Then, on top of that, it's ensuring that we have all the right applications to help with digital transformation. And then, as part of that further, is the industry solutions. Because in our six focus industries, we want to make sure that we're really developing the right applications with the right solutions and half a deep expertise that companies are looking for so that we can really part with partner with them and really, truly be innovative. And we could feel much more comfortable being innovative. But we really understand our customer problems >> keep Part of that is the global s eyes. You look out here, you see all the big names I won't name because I'll forget one. But there's two obvious ones right there because once you start to see those guys come into the ecosystem, that's when you can partner and get really deep industry expertise globally, >> I agree. And so we do have a great partnerships that said here with Accenture in tow, Lloyd and Antos or three of them, many more that we were working really closely with. And there really are an extension of what we want to build because we know that we will not be able Teo create every single last mile industry solution and every single industry, and working with those companies really helps us. >> I was on the plane last night watching the game. Of course, I love you guys got to see it. You're probably appear busy, but I focused. Google was all over the this year, >> so this is our second year of our partnership with the law, and it's been great. There's a couple dimensions to that partnership. First and foremost, we help them analyze eighty years worth of data. And through all of that analysis, we've been working with him about making predictions about games in helping them understand players and coaches and teams better. Everything from creating brackets. Teo, how do you fan experience? And then as part of that, we also had opportunity to do some advertising within their games. So you may have seen some of the TV spots that we did, which was about analyzing that data. We put ourselves on the line by making predictions during the game about what we thought would happen based on all of our analysis. And then the Big Chef this year was we included students, so it was really studies. Last year we created all these models, but we did it within Google. We had Google, Debs and Google engineers creating prediction models. We said, like, What if we brought students in tow? Help us? So we recruited thirty or so all star students around the country from their schools, brought them together. They learned DCP like that. It was awesome. And then they started working together doing predictions. And so a lot of what you saw in the Games and on our hub was actually students using Google Claude platform to make predictions about the games. >> So just get this right. The reference on stage by T K students. So you had data from the that was exposed to the students. They had a hackathon. How much lead time that they have? What was that >> did everything with thirty days. So they hack it on was about two months ago or so. But within the last thirty days, they did all of these different projects and they were actually doing really creative things about trying to come up with new types of stats like explosiveness. What does that mean? Does that mean that you move in closer to the basket or does it mean that here they're coming up, the stats around pace of game and different elements of the place? It was really fun. >> How many slam dunk this, Miss Fowles? So >> question, Who do you who you're rooting for? I was >> writing from Virginia. You know, Let's say I >> was right for >> Virginia after my bracket got busted, so I was allowed to kind of change a little bit. And they're Michigan. Once they were gone, I was like, >> So I use no way. I but I hit ninety ninth percentile. So you go. I had Michigan in Michigan State rather in Virginia in my Final Four for Michigan State. Lost, but still, I would have been >> That's pretty good >> night, point nine. So what is with what kind of predictions were the students doing well, >> predictions about everything from, well, last night we had some predictions about the number two point last. We had about how many different times we're going to exchange like the ball will go back and forth between teams. We had predictions about three pointers and one game everything. So it's been really fun. Teo work with >> that kind of in game predictions. To see that a lot. >> You probably saw some stats real >> probability of, ah, victory, which of course, last night. Forget it. I mean, it's changed so quickly. >> Great program. One of those I want to ask you change gears is you have a book in the press room called customer Voices. So this has been a focus, and I think a lot of people have been Lego Google's great tact, but not a lot of customers, which you guys air debunking with. Not only this, but here to show shown the logo slide really kind of showing the traction from a customer's standpoint. >> Yes, about >> the focus on the customer. How does that change? How you doing your job? How is the tech rolling out? Can you share some insight into customer focused. >> Yeah, this has been a really big step change this year. We have over four hundred customers speaking throughout this event, and then we have a number of them that are on stage in the keynotes telling real stories. Two years ago, we had some customers speaking and they would say, I'm looking. I'm dabbling and this But now they're making rial kind of bet The company decisions using our technology. And so this customer voices is looking at those companies. We have something called the customer innovation serious this afternoon, where the CIA of HSBC will be talking about their evolution and Gogo Cloud. Two years ago, Darrell West was on stage talking about just kind of what they will be getting. Two Dio with Google Cloud Platform And now here we are two years later, when they've made a lot of progress and we'LL be sharing their stories that the custom innovation Siri's is one of my favorite parts. It next, >> you know, we cover a lot of events. David eyes were like two ESPN of tech or game day. We've gotten the shows, we see a lot of events and you kind of hear the key words over and over again. Soon these events here we're hearing scale, which we've heard all the time. Google scales, scales, scales solve all our problems. But we're hearing more about customers. OK, this has been a big focus. How have you guys shifted internally? Because this seems to been around for a while. Like you said, I think it's a step function from what we're seeing as well. What's going on internally. How you guys mobilizing, How you guys taking this to the mark? Because you've got great partition. So Cisco onstage VM wears even up there. You got an ecosystem developing a lot of momentum. >> So we're truly this year Enterprise ready to use a buzz word that comes up. So two years ago, we still had some holes in some of our technology stack, and we're still really building to go to market teams. We still vastly scaling that so absolutely growing there. But we're in a whole different place as a business where we are able to serve really large enterprises at scale. McKesson just announced sixth largest company that they are moving and working with us a Google cloud. I mean, so these air major companies that are making big decisions to work with us. And so it's at a whole different level this year, and we're really proud that the customers have chosen to work with us, and we're building the organization to ensure that their successful. So that's our customer success program. That's ensuring we have the right kind of customer engineers working hand in hand with our customers. So it's a big focus ever. Whole group. It's a focus where Thomas Kurian has a lot of background serving enterprise customers at Oracle for twenty years, bringing that expertise. So you'LL see that everywhere. So I'm glad you picked up on that and feel it because it's really permeates everything we're doing at Google clouds, >> and it's been a good, positive change. The results of their What's the focus for you As you look forward, It's a lot to do. You guys are a great opportunity. I always say Google's dark horse now Samson's got a good lead out there being first in, but you guys have a lot of tech. You got the customer focus. You got a lot of momentum on the tech side. Cloud native Open source. Partner ecosystem Developing customer ecosystem. So kind of ball's in your court, so to speak. >> You feel really well, position we It's early. So in the whole market, people seem to think that I like all these decisions, but it's really still eighty percent of workload Zoran data centers of these big enterprises, everybody who's here with us right now. And most companies were choosing a multi club strategy this morning. We announced a major product and those that really enables the multi cloud strategy so enables Google to really be at the center of that multi cloud and provide the services using containers and a lot of the biggest best advances right now. And so as we scale our go to market, we can really bring this technology that way here, over and over again, is the best technology in the business. Yeah, we had it really had to go to market in place to bring it to customers. And this is really where we're taking it so we can help get this awesome technology. It's so fun is a marketer to them, bring it to everybody. >> I always say it so early. The wave is just getting started more ways behind it. I'm very impressed. That intrigue also by the rebranding of the Google Cloud platform what you guys announced last kind of hybrid and those is interesting because it's a rebrand slash new set of integration points Sisco again on stage kind of integrating with your container platform is a key key story that I think is nuanced but kind of points to a whole new Google. What was behind the rebranding? Can you just share some insight that what the commerce she's like Google Cloud Platforms is descriptive. But I mean, >> sister, thanks >> Cloud Services platform when we chose that name last year is when we wanted to Alfa with a product and frankly, within the marketing team, he kind of knew was always a placeholder name. And then the debate was, What do we change the name when you go to Beta, which we did a couple months ago? Or when we go to went to Gaea and we decided this would be a great opportunity to change the name, so we always knew it was going to change the name. Picking a name is always complicated, and so we spent a lot of time thinking about what way wanted that name too mean and what we wanted to stand for. And we really liked Anthros. It's a Greek word. It is a nod to the Greek aspects of the history of the product. With Cooper, Netease, Andhis, Teo and other areas. It means the blossom it means to grow. It means all. And so you many words like Anthology and things like that. So we'd liked both what it meant, And we also liked that with all Namie decisions, it's easy to spell. It's easy to find. It's all great, >> and it's super >> booming in California. Here as we speak. Well, ironic. >> It has an international flavor to it. But you guys, you guys are taking this show overseas, right? They've got a big show in London in November, I know and yes, >> be in Tokyo in July at next and then London in November. And then we do it between all of these. What we call Clouds Summit Siri's, which are in country slightly smaller. But we bring a lot of the same technology, and speakers and sessions just have a slightly scaled down version. >> Intimate. We really appreciate your support. We love doing the Cube hearing a lot of Czech athletes, as we say here on the show floor. Lot of knowledge, good customer converses. Alison's Thanks for sharing the inside congratulates on the great >> show, so I left be here. Thanks >> for rebranding as the market shifts. Great time to have a rebrand, certainly when it means something more. Multi cloud hybrid cloud Google Cloud Platform now and those that cube bring you live coverage here from the floor at Google next twenty nineteen. Stay with us for more after this short break.

>> live from San Francisco. It's the Cube covering Google Cloud next nineteen, brought to you by Google Cloud and its ecosystem partners. >> Welcome back to San Francisco, everybody. We're here at the Mosconi Center. This is Day one of our three day coverage of Google next twenty nineteen, the second year the Cube has done Google. Next, Google's Big Cloud show, Thomas Curry and up on stage today, the newly minted head of Google Cloud. I'm Dave Volante and this is my co host student, and you're watching the Cube, the leader in live tech coverage. And we're here with Cy Mukundan, who was the director of product management at Cohesive deci. Great to see you again. Thanks for coming back in the queue. >> Thanks, Dave. Thanks. Too nice to be here. >> So if you could show it's hopping. Your clouds were all the action is. But let's talk a little bit about how he city you guys were on fire growing like crazy. What's the quick update on the city? >> Cool. Yeah, cohesive ahs you might have heard last year we had a big funding round way. Heard investment from Softbank. I know it's a result off that we just launched cohesively Japan s. So that's how we're going to market in Japan. So that's expanding our international presence, particularly in Asia. And then here, you know, not America. There's been a growing number off customer acquisition, and I would say, more importantly, repeat customers as well. You know, you you really realize that with enterprises, it's the repeat. Customers help you drive more adoption. That customer case studies on that again gets new customers, right? So that's what you're seeing and cohesive e >> big mega trends that are tail winds and opportunities for Kohi City and other other players in the space. Cloud, obviously, is one of those big ones that changed the way in which we develop applications changed the developer world. But also there's a desire to get Maura out of backups. I want to talk about you know, some of those trends. What is driving your business. What do you guys see? A CZ. The big trends. What's the premise? >> Yeah, So the premises data protection is no longer the insurance policy, so to speak that customers were thinking about they're really thinking about. What else can I do beyond just data protection? Right. So That's where the power ofthe cohesively platform comes in. In terms ofthe, once the data is there on platform, the ability to do other things. Stability to leverage it for tester for disaster recovery for analytics so recently. You know, sometime back we actually launched our APP store, both powered by applications that can know where Bill by Cho Hee City and then also in partnership. It's plunked on a couple of other renders where these APs are now running on the data set that has landed on cohesive. So customers are now truly realizing the vision that we had promised to them in terms of being able to do more with the data. >> So speed a cloud. You guys get hard news, so take us through that. >> Yeah, so today's an exciting day. We actually released our first SAS offering. It's caused. Could cohesively cloud backup service for Google Cloud Platform? So think of it as truly backup. A service broadly speaking, three things right? So it provides that enterprise grade data protection that customers are looking for in G. C. P. So you heard in the main stage today about Google warning to partner with another windows and This is one such partnership. There we provide backup and recovery for applications running on ***, so that's the first one enterprise grade. The second aspect ofthe the solution is the fact that it is truly scalable in nature, but at the same time provides that granular recovery capabilities when the customer needs that data back right on. The last one is really the ease off use and management, because when you're doing things in the cloud, customers are usedto ease off use in terms of consuming the service, right. So here it's integrated with Google both in the marketplace as well as in terms ofthe the building that they get. So everything is all integrated with G C. P. All >> right, so if so, we've talked to all the hybrid multi cloud shows, you know, Big virtual ization show in all three of the Big Cloud shows. What differentiates the SAS offering from what, what cohesive has been offering in the past? >> Yeah, I think so. Up until now, it's bean to major things that we have delivered for customers. One is the Khyber return videos that you guys have alluded to as well and then born in the Cloud Cloud native, their customers still sort of like Do it yourself, you know, deployed the platform from us and then perform all the day today infrastructure management and keep planning around it. This one truly is a different shade or game changer. In the sense start, it's truly backup as a service, so no longer there's a customer need to worry about the infrastructure management aspect ofthe things. They just go into the marketplace as easy as a few clicks, deploy the solution on. Then they're open running in terms ofthe being able to back up and recover. So it's it's really the SAS model. The fact that we're embracing sass on our customers are heading in the direction is what truly differentiates this particular off >> so sight. Why why Google? Let's just start there is to know what you're hearing from customers. Be back. How come this is the first *** offering? Your >> long I think two things right. One is there are enterprises wear hearing more and more enterprises adopting, you know, Google Cloud as well. So this was obviously driven by some customers Summerlee customers asking for such a solution, so that always helps make a business case Right on then. The second one is you heard in the keynote this morning about Google being truly open, winding toward more with partners. And this is the result of one such strategic partnerships a Google sort of collab collaborating with co history and working together to get the solution toe and customer. So >> you see them is more partner friendly. Can you discern the difference between Google and other partners Air, You know, I'm looking for Okay, I heard it on stage. I mean, they're doing so you know, actions speak louder than words, But a za partner, do you discern >> that? I think it resonates well with me for just based on our experience with the whole launch and everything. I'll give you a couple of instances right on. This relates to the fact that you know, Google's acknowledging that they're also learning along with customers, especially the enterprise customers. So we have a number of enterprise customers and knowledge of how to work with them. And to be honest, you know, some of the things on their marketplace and other things required a close collaboration between us. Not everything was there out of the box and Google was a very willing partner. Toe, listen, tow us and collaborate with us on. I make things happen on the second aspect ofthe it really comes down to also the gold market benefits that we're beginning to see as part of that partnership because it's one thing to build a solution. But then taking it to their in customers and our mutual customers is also a big aspect of the partnership. >> Okay, I gotta ask you size. So I hear a lot. I don't have to back up my data. It's in the cloud. Explain our audience. The difference between sort of that statement and what you know, backup recovery, a data protection, modern data protection is all about Why can't I just back it up in the cloud and Google take care of it? >> Yeah, I think not just Google, but with all the clouds. What? What they provide is availability right on the fact that data stays in no multiple regions. But it's essentially the same data set that replicated across different zones are regions a CZ, they call it. But at the end of the day, you know customers want to be able to go back to a certain point in time because there are several reasons for it. One is human errors, you know. That's probably the number one cause of why you know, they they need data protection. But besides that, there's a reason to do step on a certain version ofthe the data is there's a reason John anonymized the data. So a lot of reasons to just, you know, go for a data protection solution beyond what the Cloud Windows offer it offer themselves available. >> One of things we hear is in a hybrid and multi cloud world. I've got my data and a lot of places. So if I can have something that is agnostic tall, those locations that companies like cohesive have done, how does this new SAS offering fit into all of those other environments? If I'm already cohesive customers, they're going to be a similar look and feel. And am I gonna understand that you know what? What? What's the same? What's different? >> Yeah, so we have ah, Helios, which is our SAS management portal. So that's what customers used today. For all they're both on premise as well as crowd deployments on the way it works is it provides you that truly I know single pane of glass is sort of very abuse word, but it really provides us a single view into all your environments across raiders, different deployments off cohesively, whether it's at the edge of the data center or in the cloud. And so in the service, we leverage the same, you know, Helios Banishment portal, but in a much more simply fired format because you're you're taking some off the, you know, administrative aspect away from the customers and having to just provide them just this. The service Functional lady off. Just backup in >> recovery. What is the pricing model for the cloud Backup service is a capacity based usage base monthly. How's it work? >> S Oh, it's truly a consumption based, more like everything else that we're aware off in the clouds. So the way it's priced is it's based on the consumption consumption on the service, the city service, and here's where we provide that benefit back to the inn customer in terms ofthe great deal application and the storage efficiency benefits that we offer provide a lot, you know, lower capacity that actually lands on the service. A supposed to you know what, maybe running in your primary environment. So we provide that benefit back to the customer in terms ofthe charging them on a usage based on consumption based model, in this case, based on the capacity that's landed on the service. And so it's again, like I said earlier, it's integrated with the Google billing. So when a customer looks at their monthly Google infra infrastructure costs, it also includes an additional line item for the cohesively service. So the customer at the end of the day just has to deal with their gcpd. >> So it's a true cloud cloud pricing model, absolute, which is which I say that because much, if not most, of the SAS products that you purchase are not what I would consider to cloud model You'LL you know, make the annual commitment or a multi year commitment. And as the vast majority of the SAS says, the infrastructure guys, they think, got it right. >> You could scale only one way up. Yeah, >> that's good. All right, so I give you closing thoughts on on Google Next your your announcement of the future for the city. >> The one thing that excited me from the keynote this morning was was Antos. I mean, they talked about how that could be a single control plane, not just for G c p, but potentially across other clouds, clouds as well and and even on trim on. That's where I think there is more synergy. There's more partnership because we excel in the data center we excel in the cloud on. So I'm looking forward to this partnership with Google to extend cloud backup service beyond what we have released today. >> Still, what you call the motion for the cloud that powerful concept and we know what the motion did for virtual ization. And so we'll see what at those could do for cloud and cloud management. So thanks very much for coming back And >> thanks for hosting his guys. Really a pleasure to be here. >> Good to see again. All right, keep it right to everybody. He watched the Cube live from Google next twenty eighteen I'm dying day Volante was to minimum John Furry is also here. We'LL be right back after this short break from Mosconi
SUMMARY :
Google Cloud next nineteen, brought to you by Google Cloud and Great to see you again. Too nice to be here. So if you could show it's hopping. And then here, you know, not America. I want to talk about you know, In terms ofthe, once the data is there on platform, the ability to do other things. So speed a cloud.

Thomas Kurian Keynote Analysis | Google Cloud Next 2019
>> fly from San Francisco. It's the Cube covering Google Cloud next nineteen Tio by Google Cloud and its ecosystem partners. >> Run. Welcome to the Cube here, live in San Francisco on Mosconi South were on the floor at Google. Next twenty nineteen. Hashtag Google Next nineteen. I'm John for my co host this week for three days and wall to wall coverage of Google's cloud conference is with Dave. Alonso Has too many men. Guys day one of three days of wall to wall coverage. We got Thomas Curry in the new CEO on the job for ten weeks. Took the realm from Diane Green. Thirty five thousand attendees. It's packed. It's definitely a developer crowd. It feels a lot like a WS, not a corporate show like Microsoft or IBM or others or Oracle. It's really more about developers. We just heard the Kino. Google's making some moves. The new CEO is gonna put on a show. He saw two customers you see in the positioning. Soon DARPA Kai, the CEO of Google, came out really kind of. Ah, interesting keynote Feels like Thomas's that's gonna shake that Oracle off, but he's guns blaring. Some new announcements. Guys, let's do a round upon the keynote. >> Yeah. So, John, as you said, a great energy here that this place is bustling sitting here where we are, we could see everybody is going through the Expo Hall. As you said. Is Google serious about this? This whole cloud activity? Absolutely. There's no better way than to have your CEO up. There we go, The Amazon show. You don't see Jeff Bezos there into the Microsoft shows? You know, you don't usually see you know their CEO. There you have the Cloud Group does the cloud thing, but absolutely. Cloud is a critical piece of what Google is doing. And it's interesting because I actually didn't feel as geeky and his developer focused as I would expect to see at a Google show. Maybe they've heard that feedback for years that, you know, Google makes great stuff, but they're too smart in there, too geeky When you go to the Amazon show, they're announcing all of the different, you know, puting storage pieces and everybody's hooting and hollering. Here it was a little bit more business. It was high level. They had all these partners out on stage and customers out on stage. Many of them, you know, you talk about retail and health care and all these other ones where you say, Okay, Amazons, a major competitor there. So, you know, can Google stake their claim as to how they're going to move up from the number three position and gain more market share? You know, as they fit into the multi cloud, which we know we're going to spend a lot of time on, wears their position in this cloud space today. >> What your thoughts. >> Well, first of all, there's a big show. I mean, it's we're here at IBM thick in February. This feels like a much, much larger event, Number one Stew said. It's really much more developer heavy, I think. John, there's no question people don't question Googles Global Cloud Presence. Soon Dar talked about two hundred countries, ninety cloud regions fifty eight plus two new data centers. So no question there. But there are questions as to whether or not Google could move beyond search and maps and Gmail and really be a big cloud player for Enterprise Cloud that really is to the elephant in the room. Can Google innovate and attractive CEOs? They showed a number of customers, not nearly, of course, as many as what Amazon or even Microsoft would show. They're talking about ecosystem. To me, that ecosystem slide. It's got a cord truthful this year to really show some progress. But you've got new leadership as we talked about last year, John and love to get your thoughts on this. Google's playing the long game. They've got the best tech and you know they've got great data. Great. Aye, aye. I want to take >> into the new rebranding of the Google Cloud platform, which is now called Antos, which is a Greek word for flour. We kind of had visibility into This would kind of start coming. But before we get into that, I want to just kind of point out something that we've reported on looking angle, some that we've been saying on Twitter on DH about Diane Greene. It's been reported that she was fired from Google for missing on red hat. All these rumors, but interesting Thomas Koreans first words, a CEO on stage. It was a direct shout out to Diane Greene. I think this validates our reporting and our analysis that Diane Green absolutely helped hire curry and work with the boy workers Sundar And essentially, because she was the architect of rebuilding Google Clouds Enterprise chops the team there that she recruited we've been following and covering. Diane Green built that foundation. She passed the torch. Thomas Curry. This was not a Diane Green firing, so I think I think Thomas Carrion nice gesture on Diane Green kind of sets the table and validates and preserves her legacy as the rebuilder re architect of Google Cloud. >> Pretty interesting. Yeah. I mean, you know, I think this where there's some smoke, there's fire that don't think Diana Corning court fired. I think you know that she was under a lot of pressure. She was here for seven years. I think they probably felt like Okay, now it's time to really bring somebody in. Who wants to take this to the next level? And I'll die unnecessarily had the stomach for that >> John Really great points there. But it does talk about you know what is the culture of Google? You know, the elephant The room is what is Google? Google makes you know most of their money on advertising. That's not what Google Cloud is. It doesn't fit into the additional model. You know, Google's culture is not geared for the enterprise. As you know that the critique on Google for years has been We make really great stuff and you need to be Google E. And you need to do things the way we do Thomas Koreans out there. We need to meet customers where they are today. That's very much what we hear in the Enterprise. That that's what you hear. You know when you talk about Amazon or Microsoft, they're listening to their customers. They're meeting them at their business applications there, helping them build new environment. So, you know, will Google be a little less googly on DH? Therefore, you know, meet customers and help work them, and that leads to the multi clouding the anthros discussed. >> We heard a lot about that today. I mean, John, you've pointed out many, many times that Cooper Netease is the linchpin to Google strategy. It's really you know, that was the kind of like a Hail Mary relative Tae Ws and that's what we heard today. Multi cloud, multi cloud, multi cloud, where is with a W s. And certainly to a lesser extent, Oracle. It's Unit Cloud Multi Cloud is more expensive is what they tell us. Multi cloud is less secure. A multi cloud is more complex. Google's messaging is exactly the opposite of >> that. So, Dave, just to poke it that a little bit, is great to see Sanjay *** Inn up on stage with VM wear. But where we last cvm were to cloud show. It's an Amazon. They've got a deep partnership here. Cooper Netease is not a differentiator for Google. Everybody's doing it. Even Amazon is being, you know, forced to be involved in it. Cisco was up on stage. This guy's got a deep partnership with Amazon and a ks. So you know, Cooper Netease is not a magic layers. Good job, Ada said on the Cube. Q. Khan. It is something that you know Google, that management layer and how I live in a multi cloud environment. Yes, Google might be further along with multi cloud messaging, then say Amazon is, But you know, Amazons, the leader in this space and everybody that has multiple clouds, Amazons, one of them, even the keynote >> This morning aboard Air Force right eight, I was forced into Cooper days you're not CNW s run demos that show, you know, a target of the Google clouded the Microsoft. You saw that today from Google >> while we see how the Amazon demos with our oracle. But that's the result. Let's let's hold off on the partisan saying, Let's go through the Kino So the Diane Green comment also AOL came out. Who runs VP of Engineer. He's the architect. One. This Antos product. Last year, they announced on G. C. P s basically a hybrid solution G a general availability of Antos, which has security built in out of the box. Multi cloud security integrated for continues integration, confused development, CCD pipeline ing very key news and that was really interesting. This is such a their new platform that they've rebranded called Antos. This is a way for them to essentially start posturing from just hybrid to multi cloud. This is the shift of of Google. They want to be the on premise cloud solution and on any cloud, your thoughts. >> You know, the demo said it all. The ability to take V m movement two containers and move them anywhere right once and move anywhere and that, I think, is is the key differentiator right now. Relative to certainly eight of us. Lesser extent Microsoft, IBM right there with red hat. That's to me The interesting angle >> Here. Look, Google has a strong history with Ken Containers. If you if you scroll back to the early days of doctor twenty fourteen, twenty, fifty, Google's out there as to how many you know, it just so many containers that they're building up and tearing down. However you go to the Microsoft. So you go to the Amazon show. We're starting to talk a lot more about server list. We're gonna have the product lead for surveillance on today. I'm excited to dig into that because on a little bit concerned that Google is so deep in the containers and how you Burnett eases, they're looking for, like a native to connect the pieces, but that they are a little bit behind in some of the next generation architectures built on journalists for death. >> I want to make a point here if you're not the leader in cloud which, you know in Enterprise Cloud, which Google is not, you know, IBM is not or, you know, Oracle is not okay, fine, but if you don't have a cloud like Cisco or Dell or VM, where you have to go after multi cloud. Amazon's not in a rush to go after multi cloud. There's no reason down the road. Amazon can't go after that opportunity. To the extent that it's a real tam, it's There's a long way to go. Talk about early innings were like having started the game of Outpost >> hasn't even been spect out. Yes, sir, there has not been relieved. So we're seeing what Amazon's got knowing they are the clouds. So they're the incumbent. Interesting enough on Jennifer Lin. You mention the demo. Jennifer Lin Cube alumni. We gonna interview her later. She introduced on those migrate Kind of reminds me of some of the best shows we have the migration tools and that migrates work clothes from PM wears into containers running in containers. As you mentioned. A. This is an end and no modified co changes. That's a big deal, >> John. Exactly on Twitter, people are going. Is this the next emotion? You know, those of us who've been in the industry while remember how powerful that was able to seamlessly migrate? You know, the EMS and containers at, You know, I shouldn't have to think about Colin building it where it lives. That was the promise of has for all those years and absolutely things like uber Netease what Google's doing, chipping away at that. They're partnering with Cisco, there partner with pivotal parting with lots of companies so that that portability of code isa lot of >> Master Jack is a cloud of emotion. I mean, we know what the motion did in the Enterprise. >> To me, that's the star. The keynote is actually the rebranding associate positioning thing. But the star of the show is the Jennifer Lin demo, because if anthems migrate actually works, that's going to tell. Sign to me on how fast Google can take territory now. What's interesting also with the announcements, was, I want to get you guys thoughts on this because we cover ecosystems, we cover how Cloud and Enterprise have been pardoning over the years. Enterprise is not that easy. Google has found out the hard way Microsoft is done really well. They've installed base. Google had stand this up from the beginning again. Diane Greene did a great job, but now it's hard. It's a hard nut to crack. So you see Cisco on stage. Cisco has huge enterprise. Cloud the em Where comes on stage? David Gettler Gettler, the VP of engineering of Cisco, one of their top executives on stage. And he has Sanjay *** and keep alumni came on. Sanjay had more time. Francisco. So you have two companies who kind of compete? NSX. We have suffered a fine Cisco both on stage. Cisco, absolutely integrating into We covered on silicon angle dot com just posted it live where Cisco is actually laying down their container platform and integrating directly into Google's container platform to offer a program ability End to end. I think that's something that didn't get teased out on the keynotes doing, because this allows for Google to quickly move into the enterprise and offer true program ability of infrastructure. This is the nirvana of infrastructure is code. This is what Dev Ops has been waiting for. Still your thoughts on this because this could be a game changer. Hydro, what's an A C I. This could put pressure on VM, where with the containers running in platform and the Cisco relationship your thoughts. >> So John Cisco has a broad portfolio. When you talk about multi cloud, it's not just the networking components, it's the eyes, absolutely apiece. But that multi cloud management, uh, is a layer that Cisco has, you know, been adding two and working on for a lot of years, and they've got very key partnerships. So making sure, you know, seeing right seeing David vehicular onstage here. Proof, Cisco, lot of enterprise customers him where, Of course, six hundred thousand customers. They're So Google wants to get into these accounts. You look at, you know, Microsoft strength of their enterprise agreements that they have. So how will Google get into some of these big accounts? Get into the procurement, get into the environment? And there's lots of different methods and partnerships We said our credit >> David vehicular undersold the opportunity here. I mean, when it comes to he did at working Inter Cloud. Sisko is in the poll possession position to basically say we got the best network, the highest performance networks, the most secure networks, and we're in a position to connect all these clouds. And to me, that didn't come out today. So when you think about multi cloud, each of these companies is coming at it from a position of strength. Cisco. Very clearly dominant networking VM wear in virtual ization and I think that came through. And Sanjay *** ins, you know, keynote. I think again Gettler undersold it, but it's a great opportunity for Cisco and Google. >> Well, I think Google has a huge opportunity. It Cisco because if they have a go to market joint sales together, that could really catapult Google sails again. If I get really was kind of copy, we're we're Cisco. But Cisco look, a bm was on stage with them. I thought that was going to be a Hail Mary for for Sisko to kind of have bring that back. But then watching Sanjay Putin come on saying, Hey, we're okay, it's going to be a V m World And Pat Kelsey has been on the record saying, Coo Burnett eases the dial tone of the Internet stew. This is an interesting matchup between Cisco and BM, where your thoughts >> Yeah, so so right. There's so many pieces here, a cz to where their play way. No, there's competitive competition and, you know, partnerships. In a lot of these environments, Google actually has a long history of partnering. You know, I can't even think how many years ago, the Google and GM or Partnership and Cisco. If I can't actually, Dave, there's There's something I know you've got a strong viewpoint on. You know, Thomas Kurian left Oracle and it was before he had this job. Every he says, you know, is T. K going to come in here and bring, you know, oracles, you know, sales methodology into Google. You know, What does he bring? What's his skill set on? You know >> what exact community? I think it's the opposite, right? I think that's why you left Oracle because he didn't want every database to run in the Oracle, Cloudy realised is a huge opportunity out there. I think the messaging that I heard today is again it's completely I saw something on Twitter like, Oh, this is just like organ. It's nothing like Oracle. It's the It's the polar opposite opposite of what Oracle is doing. >> I think I think curry and can really define his career. This could be a nice swan song for him. As he takes Google with Diane Greene did builds it out, does the right deals if he can build on ecosystem and bring the tech chops in with a clear go to market. He's not going to hire the salespeople and the SCS fast enough. In my opinion, that's gonna be a really slow boat. Teo promised land. He's got to do some deals. He's gotta put Some Corp Devin Place has gotta make some acquisitions will be very in the sin. DARPA Kai, the CEO, said. We are investing heavily in cloud. If I'm Amazon, I'm worried about Google.
