We’re happy to announce a new integration with Google Stackdriver, allowing users to easily ship data from Google Cloud Platform into Logz.io via Google Pub/Sub! Early adopters of Google Cloud may recall that they were pretty much in the dark as far as logging their projects was concerned.

Over the past few years, cloud computing has passed through its hype and early-adopter phases. Now we are hitting the peak of migration from on-premise to cloud-based infrastructure. Consequently, this transition and the advent of cloud computing has dramatically changed the way we think about security. Namely, the security paradigm has shifted towards a Zero Trust Security Model.
