Securing agentic AI with perimeter guardrails: What’s new in VPC Service Controls

Cloud Computing /

As enterprises scale autonomous AI agents into production, enabling safe innovation requires robust architectural guardrails. AI agents connect across tools and datasets, so it’s essential to establish clear network-level boundaries for comprehensive data protection. To help organizations confidently deploy these workflows, we recommend VPC Service Controls (VPC-SC) to establish an essential network-level, destination-based perimeter. Today

From query to action: Introducing SQL alerting in Cloud Monitoring Observability Analytics

Cloud Computing /

Traditional alerting systems often force a compromise: you can either alert immediately on simple, noisy log events, or monitor rigid, pre-configured metrics that fail when faced with data with many unique answers like user sessions or IP addresses. But the most critical system issues — like a 20% spike in error rates for a specific
