Introduction  Today, Google Threat Intelligence Group (GTIG) will begin rolling out a unified naming schema for tracking threat actors. This new naming taxonomy represents an effort to standardize tracking across platforms and public reporting. Why are we Adopting a Different Naming System? Historically, Mandiant and Google’s Threat Analysis Group (TAG) maintained distinct tracking systems, relying

The math behind reinforcement learning (RL) post-training for large language models (LLMs) is notoriously unforgiving. As frontier AI labs push the boundaries of reasoning and coding models using RL post-training algorithms like Group Relative Policy Optimization (GRPO), they routinely hit hard architectural and infrastructure constraints. While much of the industry’s focus remains on acquiring raw

Welcome to The Blueprint, a new feature where we highlight how Google Cloud customers are tackling unique and common challenges across industries using the latest AI and cloud technologies. We hope to inspire others looking to innovate in their work. Founded in 2018, Voicify reimagines the traditional phone call with the goal of transforming every

What’s one of the biggest bottlenecks stopping organizations from scaling their AI initiatives? It isn’t the capabilities of today’s models — it’s their access to business context and semantic meaning.  In the agentic era, enterprises need to go beyond simply storing data to activating it with trusted context, moving from passive systems of record to

Healthcare organizations face a critical scaling challenge – how to maintain deeply personalized patient interactions as member bases grow, without overwhelming care teams or compromising quality. At Pelago, a digital health company specializing in substance use disorder support, the engineering team found a way to build an AI-powered solution to address this challenge using AWS

AWS CloudFormation is the foundational tool of infrastructure-as-code for thousands of organizations running workloads on AWS. But as teams push the boundaries of what CloudFormation can do natively, custom resources have emerged as a powerful extension mechanism that unlocks a broad range of possibilities. Yet, when it comes to building resilient, multi-Region deployments with custom

Data engineering teams often face a “Day 2” operational reality after building a data platform: the ongoing work of maintaining the orchestrator itself. For the Data Platform team at Checkout.com, managing a self-hosted Apache Airflow environment on another hyperscaler was consuming time the team wanted to spend elsewhere as server management, patching, and incident response
