Serverless is an incredible paradigm, but performance tuning sometimes feels like a black box. You have no control over the infrastructure, but that doesn’t mean you can’t optimize. In this post, let’s look at five ways to take serverless performance to the next level.

As organizations in the public sector continue to undergo what Deloitte has called a “radical transformation” and embrace new, innovative technologies, they’re seeing improvements in everything from agility to customer experience.

Imagine you’re a detective trying to solve a crime, but all the evidence is invisible. Sounds impossible, right?

BigQuery’s pipe syntax introduces an intuitive, top-down syntax for understanding data transformations, and is used in Cloud Logging Log Analytics.
