Calling the shift to cloud an \"inflection point\" in the history of computing, Google CEO Sundar Pichai said that in the future almost everything will be done in the cloud as there will be no better way of doing things.

SAN FRANCISCO: Calling the shift to cloud an "inflection point" in the history of computing, Google CEO Sundar Pichai said that in the future almost everything will be done in the cloud as there will be no better way of doing things.

He was speaking at the Google Cloud Products (GCP) Next 2016 conference in San Francisco, a platform through which the Mountain View headquartered firm is trying to underline its aggressiveness towards cloud.

"As a primary thing, we have sealed up the infrastructure, and now we are opening it up so that every business across the world can use it," said Pichai.

Snapchat and Spotify are some of the marquee customers of Google's cloud products.

And Pichai also gave the example of an animation studio in Mumbai which is using the services to produce a movie, underlying the uptake that these services are finding in emerging economies such as India. Google recently got on board Diane Green, founder of virtualisation firm VMware as it tries to catch with rivals such as Amazon Web Services, Microsoft etc.
