\ Gemini for Google Cloud is a new generation of AI assistants for developers, Google Cloud services, and applications. These assist users in working and coding more effectively, gaining deeper data insights, navigating security challenges, and more. Using Google's Gemini family of models, Gemini for Google Cloud lets teams accomplish more in the cloud.
\ Gemini for Google Cloud offers enterprise-ready, AI capabilities that deliver robust security, compliance, and privacy controls, all with industry-leading availability.
\ Let’s take a detailed look at how we’re integrating Gemini into our Google Cloud offerings.
Accelerate software delivery with Gemini Code Assist
We are announcing Gemini Code Assist, the evolution of the Duet AI for Developers, which now uses our latest Gemini models. It offers AI-powered assistance to help developers build applications with higher velocity and quality in popular code editors like VS Code and JetBrains. Gemini Code Assist is an enterprise-grade coding assistance solution that supports your private codebase wherever it lives — on-premises, Gitlab, Github, Bitbucket, or even across multiple repositories. Built with robust enterprise features, it enables organizations to adopt AI assistance at scale while meeting security, privacy, and compliance requirements.
\
"As Google Cloud’s Gemini Code Assist launch partners, we are excited to report that we have seen efficiency gains of over 30% through the adoption of LLM based code acceleration workflows. Gemini Code Assist's time-saving code completion and bug resolution features have allowed us to push the boundaries of innovation and productivity.” - Asif Hasan, Co-Founder, Quantiphi Inc.
\ At Next, we are introducing many exciting new features to Gemini Code Assist:
\
- Full codebase awareness, currently in private preview, allows you to perform large-scale changes across your entire codebase, including adding new features, updating cross-file dependencies, helping with version upgrades, comprehensive code reviews, and more. This capability is powered by Google’s Gemini 1.5 Pro model, which offers a one-million-token context window, the largest in the industry.
\
Code customization, currently in private preview. Enterprises can connect their private codebases to tailor Gemini Code Assist to assist developers in providing context-aware code generation. In addition, we are providing connections for Gemini Code Assist to reach multiple source-code repositories including GitLab, GitHub and Bitbucket. \n \n “Code customization using RAG with Gemini Code Assist significantly increased the quality of Gemini's assistance for our developers in terms of code completion and generation. With code customization in place, we are expecting a big increase in the overall code-acceptance rate. ” Kai Du, Director of Engineering and Head of Generative AI, Turing
\
Integration Services: We are expanding the reach of Code Assist with Apigee and Application Integration to seamlessly access and connect your applications.
\
Ecosystem enhancements: Following our ecosystem announcement last December, we are improving Gemini Code Assist with data and knowledge sources from multiple partners today including Datadog, Datastax, Elastic, HashiCorp, Neo4j, Pinecone, Redis, Singlestore, Snyk, and Stack Overflow.
\ “This landmark, multi-dimensional AI-focused partnership, which includes Stack Overflow adopting the latest AI technology from Google Cloud, and Google Cloud integrating Stack Overflow knowledge into its AI tools, underscores our joint commitment to unleash developer creativity, unlock productivity without sacrificing accuracy, and deliver on socially responsible AI. By bringing together the strengths of our two companies, we can accelerate innovation across a variety of industries." - Prashanth Chandrasekar, CEO, Stack Overflow

We are now adding Gemini in Security Operations to Chronicle to elevate the skills of security teams and boost their productivity, allowing them to more easily detect, investigate, and respond to threats. A new assisted investigation feature, generally available at the end of this month, converts natural language to new detections, summarizes event data, recommends actions to take, and navigates users through the platform via conversational chat.
\
“Gemini in Security Operations is enabling us to enhance the efficiency of our Cybersecurity Operations Center program as we continue to drive operational excellence.” - Ronald Smalley, Senior Vice President of Cybersecurity Operations, Fiserv
\ In addition, we are introducing new AI capabilities across our security portfolio:
- Gemini in Threat Intelligence, in public preview, allows you to tap into Mandiant’s frontline threat intelligence using conversational search to get insights about threat actor behavior in seconds. It also helps users enhance the efficiency of their threat research by automating web crawling for relevant Open-Source Intelligence (OSINT) articles, ingesting information and providing concise summaries to aid analysts.
- Gemini in Security Command Center, in public preview, summarizes critical and high-priority alerts for misconfigurations and vulnerabilities, and can provide recommendations on how to close potential exploits in simulated attack paths, helping organizations to proactively mitigate risk.
\ Gemini in Security features are built on our SecLM API, which helps make Gemini more security-specific and extensible.
\ With Gemini in Security, customers like Pfizer are performing complex analysis faster and helping new analysts on-board more quickly, freeing up time for seasoned analysts to pursue advanced threats. You can learn more about what’s new here and go deeper on Gemini in Security here.
Accelerate analytics and workflows with Gemini in BigQuery
Today, we are also announcing that Gemini in BigQuery is in preview. Gemini in BigQuery changes the game for data engineers and data analysts by enabling them to be more productive, improve query performance and optimize costs throughout the analytics lifecycle, from ingestion and pipeline creation to deriving valuable insights with AI-powered capabilities.
Gemini in BigQuery comes with a new data canvas which provides a new notebook-like experience with natural language support and embedded visualizations.
\ Imagine you are a data analyst at a bikeshare company. You can use the new data canvas of Gemini in BigQuery to explore the datasets, identify the top trips and create a customized visualization, all using natural language prompts within the same interface
Gemini in BigQuery also includes AI augmented data preparation that assists users with cleansing and wrangling of data along with the ability to build low-code visual data pipelines. It also offers query recommendations, semantic search, low-code visual data pipeline development tools, and intelligent recommendations for query performance improvement, error minimization, and cost optimization. Users can also create SQL or Python code using natural language prompts and get real-time suggestions while composing queries.
\
"With the new AI-powered assistive features in BigQuery and ease integrating with other Google Workspace products, our teams can extract valuable insights from data. The natural language-based experiences, low-code data preparation tools, and automatic code generation features streamline high-priority analytics workflows, enhancing the productivity of data practitioners and providing the space to focus on high impact initiatives.
