Google Cloud secures $1bn-plus contract from ServiceNow
Google Cloud has reportedly secured a cloud-computing contract valued at more than $1bn from California-based software company ServiceNow. ServiceNow plans to invest $1.2 billion in Google Cloud services over five years, according to a Bloomberg report citing an undisclosed source familiar with the deal. While ServiceNow maintains agreements with various cloud providers, it did not reveal the specific details of individual contracts. Google has chosen not to comment on the terms of the agreement. Historically, major corporations have preferred leading cloud providers like Amazon Web Services (AWS) and Microsoft's Azure. However, Google's recent acquisitions of major clients such as Salesforce and OpenAI signify its growing influence in the cloud market. Earlier in 2025 , Salesforce announced a $2.5bn commitment to Google Cloud, moving away from its established reliance on AWS. OpenAI has also integrated Google Cloud into its operations to diversify its computing resources beyond Microsoft. Despite being ranked third in the cloud industry, Google Cloud represents Alphabet's primary growth avenue as its core business matures. Alphabet's investments in AI have been instrumental in drawing new clients, particularly from AI-focused startups. The cloud division reported a 32% increase in revenue for the second quarter, totalling $13.6bn. ServiceNow, a company specialising in software that automates organisational processes and IT functions, recently disclosed plans to allocate $4.8bn for cloud services through 2030. In January 2025, ServiceNow and Google Cloud announced an expanded partnership aimed at enhancing generative AI capabilities across enterprise technology stacks. This entails making ServiceNow's Now Platform and related solutions available via Google Cloud Marketplace and Google Distributed Cloud. The collaboration aims to deliver AI-powered experiences by enabling integrations with tools like BigQuery and Google Workspace. Earlier in July 2025, ServiceNow introduced agentic workforce management, an extension aimed at enhancing end-to-end AI agent orchestration. This new feature is designed to help employees maximise the impact of AI by enabling seamless and secure collaboration between human workers and AI agents to achieve tangible business outcomes.

Sovereign clouds are gathering; these two are the first off the block
India's push for a digital infrastructure isolated from global networks is fuelling a boom in sovereign cloud services, creating a multi-billion-dollar opportunity for local tech players. Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) and Google's India unit are emerging as early movers in this arena, attracting steady interest from government agencies keen to secure sensitive data on domestic platforms. Several government entities are already moving to these homegrown cloud solutions, four people familiar with the matter said. TCS, with its recently launched SovereignSecure Cloud, is leading the pack among Indian firms. Google's local arm is also gaining traction, offering specialized sovereign cloud platforms with its Google Distributed Cloud. Hiranandani Group firm Yotta Data Services too plans to build a sovereign cloud. To be sure, these contracts aren't too big, though they present a large opportunity for the future. Ayushman Bharat Digital Mission, an early adopter, spent ₹92 crore overall in FY25, of which around ₹30 crore was for the cloud contract, one of the officials said on the condition of anonymity. TCS did not respond to emailed questions, but a senior executive associated with its sovereign cloud product said one of the reasons behind the product was to "capitalize on the opportunity" amid growing concerns about sovereignty and security of data. Also read | TCS launches India-focused sovereign cloud to boost domestic revenue "We (TCS) believe that we have a completely indigenous built cloud service offering where everything from the hardware to the software is built by an Indian company," the executive said on the condition of anonymity. "This should assure any concerns the government could have when any department or wing of the government agrees to migrate their data to the cloud." Mitesh Agarwal, managing director for solutions and technology, Asia-Pacific at Google, confirmed that the company has already onboarded sovereign cloud clients in India. 'We provide AI models within the sovereign shores of India—for instance, we have Gemini 1.5, where the entire end-to-end data processing happens within our data centres in India itself," Agarwal said. He added that the company makes this offering through a platform called Google Distributed Cloud, which caters to the need for completely isolated cloud storage and computing for sensitive agencies. 'Most sovereign cloud projects would amount to annual revenue of around $2-5 million. While this is not a lot, in the next five years, thousands of such projects are expected to come up from government agencies and private companies alike. This can create multi-billion-dollar revenue streams for the infrastructure providers," one of the officials cited above said on the condition of anonymity. Read this | Yotta goes low on pricing to spur demand for its AI cloud service Sovereign cloud refers to a digital platform based entirely within the country to store and process data, as well as run applications. From the code base to the physical data centres, everything is fully located fully in India—separating them from any accessibility from outside the country. Building such platforms was presented as an early concept about three years ago. In 2023, Monaco in Europe became the first adopter of such a platform by technology services provider VMWare. Since then, the technology has found more takers, as countries grow more protectionist. In India, adoption is being led by government bodies. 'Ayushman Bharat Digital Health Mission is one such government project that is adopting sovereign cloud services right now. Similarly, Employees Provident Fund Organisation, Passport Seva and Aadhaar's governing body have their own projects, and they are in the process of adopting sovereign cloud into their operations right now," a second official added. 'Adopting sovereign cloud platforms is not a matter of replacing global cloud services from the US Big Tech. There are certain sensitive data requirements for which you need cloud services offered by Indian companies. This would ensure that this data is stored in India, without the risk of it being shared with other geographies by any particular party. This, however, does not mean that every cloud deployment and contract will be replaced, and hyperscalers will have enough space to provide their services to the Indian government agencies and ministries," the official said.

Prediction: Nvidia Stock Will Beat the Market. Here's Why.
The scramble to build compute capacity for artificial intelligence (AI) models and training has enriched longtime Nvidia (NASDAQ: NVDA) shareholders. Large tech companies have been sharply increasing capital spending to build data centers and fill them with powerful servers, largely using Nvidia's products. Retail investors and hedge fund managers alike piled into Nvidia shares over the past few years. The stock rocketed more than 400% over the last three years, even with it hovering about 25% off its record-high level. I believe the AI leader will continue to beat the market going forward. Here are some reasons why. Early use cases for AI have ranged from chatbots for internet searches and customer service to AI agents providing specialized services. Increasingly, businesses will be using the powerful technology to improve efficiency, target lucrative markets, and grow sales. Manufacturers can reduce defective products, increase productivity, and save maintenance costs using AI. Nvidia and Alphabet's Google Cloud just announced a collaboration to bring agentic AI to enterprises that are aiming to have AI make decisions and perform tasks autonomously. It will use Nvidia's latest Blackwell platform on Google Distributed Cloud to effectively create on-site data centers. Educators are also increasingly relying on AI to aid in teaching as well as research. Nvidia was targeting that segment with the release of its first desktop AI supercomputer last year. The company announced development of a compact desktop computer geared toward developers, researchers, and students. Nvidia has also launched desktop AI machines "to help marketers and other professionals leverage AI in their daily tasks," the company says. Robots powered by AI along with driver assistance and self-driving software could well drive another major growth spurt for Nvidia. The company is already realizing sharply growing sales in its automotive and robotics segment. Fourth-quarter revenue more than doubled year over year, and the segment contributed $1.7 billion to Nvidia's sales last fiscal year. Nvidia has business partnerships with multiple global automakers. Toyota plans to build its next-generation vehicles using Nvidia's software-defined platform for autonomous vehicles, for example. Vehicle makers are including advanced driving assistance capabilities, and Nvidia will be one big beneficiary. Similarly, companies will utilize intelligent machines and robots increasingly across industries, including manufacturing, healthcare and logistics. There's another important factor that can help Nvidia beat the market from here: The stock's valuation has become very compelling, as shares have dropped 17.4% this year, as of this writing. The once high-flying stock now sports a price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio below 25 based on the current fiscal year's earnings estimates. Nvidia's business is also somewhat insulated from potential cost increases that could come from Trump administration tariff policies and the U.S. trade war with China. Nvidia's gross profit margin increased 230 basis points last year to 75%. While investors may avoid the stock in the short term if profit margins deteriorate, the company is starting from a very strong position in that area. No investor can know what will come in the currently turbulent geopolitical environment. A general flight to safety could push stocks down further from recent levels if investors shun stocks in general. In the end, though, a growing business with strong profitability like Nvidia's will ultimately be an attractive place to invest for the long term.
