- Google Storage for developers

- BigQuery, fast interactive queries on Terabytes of data

- Machine Learning API: Machine Learning made easy

- Google App Engine, exposing Data APIs is a very common use case for App Engine

Google will overtake the current computing leaders by providing more value from using Google tools. Patrick was doing some very heavy analytics very easily in real time.

I learned so much! Thanks for the Meetup everyone, Chida and Patrick, in particular. I now understand Google's cloud offerings in a much more comprehensive way.

Liked that patrick was able to share some code... The overall presentation and agenda could have been more organized. Patrick's know-how and fact that he has personally written code for the products he talked about lends more credence to the talk.
