Gerrit Kazmaier (Google) Credit: Google Google Cloud has always taken a different approach than its hyperscaler peers. Google Cloud was into open source long before it became cool and was similarly early in forging partnerships to care for customer needs.Sure, not all aspects of Google Cloud's warm-and-fuzzy approach have immediately worked; at times the vendor has needed to become a bit more 'boring' to reach enterprise buyers.Even so, Google Cloud's earnest efforts to use openness as a strategic lever to compete and collaborate are increasingly paying dividends, reaching a crescendo this week at the Google Next 2022 event.
