Feature: GCP Native

Tighter GCP integration.

Overview

The Nova GCP-native feature meets GCP customers in their cloud. Tighter GCP integration produces faster time-to-value for Google-heavy customers; the integration tax that competitors leave to the customer is paid in the product.

• Cloud Operations native. Cloud Logging, Cloud Monitoring, Trace flow directly; existing customer investment preserved.
• Eventarc ingestion. Real-time event integration; detection happens at event time, not poll time.
• Workload Identity. GCP-managed auth; no static credentials, no rotation burden, no credential sprawl.
• Private Service Connect. Private connectivity; compliance-friendly; the customer’s VPC stays private.

The approach

The practical approach: Workload Identity for auth, Cloud Operations as the native data path, Marketplace listing for procurement. The team’s discipline produces low-friction adoption.

• Workload Identity. GCP-managed auth; the customer never hands over a static credential; rotation is GCP’s problem.
• Cloud Operations native. Logging, Monitoring, Trace flow directly; the customer’s existing dashboards keep working.
• Eventarc for events. Real-time event integration; deploy events, alert events, scale events all flow without polling.
• Private Service Connect. Private connectivity; supports air-gapped and regulated customer requirements.
• Marketplace listing. Google Cloud Marketplace procurement; enterprise procurement teams already know how to buy through it.

Why this compounds

GCP-native discipline compounds across customers. Each GCP-using customer adopts faster; the team’s GCP expertise grows; the cross-cloud platform story strengthens.

• Faster customer adoption. GCP-using customers adopt without complex setup; time-to-value drops from weeks to days.
• Better security posture. Workload Identity removes credential rotation burden; the attack surface shrinks.
• Compliance support. PSC and Marketplace match enterprise requirements; opens regulated markets.
• Team expertise. Each integration grows GCP knowledge; the team becomes the cross-cloud experts the market needs.

The GCP-native feature is an infrastructure investment that pays off across years. Nova AI Ops integrates with GCP as a first-class platform.
