Terraform-tracked change evidence
Every change lands as a reviewed Terraform pull request, with Cloud Logging diffs, cost impact, and an updated runbook attached to it.
Our Google Cloud Platform clients cut spend without slowing releases metrics
Two recent Google Cloud Platform engagements. Full billing and uptime figures under MNDA; walkthrough on a scoping call.
Cloud and Data engagement,
Platform engineering lead, GCP rollout
Dcrayon moved our workloads onto Cloud Run and BigQuery, then sized committed use discounts against real usage. Our monthly GCP bill is now a line the board understands.
MNDA
Monthly GCP bill vs committed use plan
90 days
p95 API latency after Cloud Run cutover
Google Cloud Platform engagement: GKE Autopilot rollout, Terraform-managed VPC and IAM, and Cloud Monitoring dashboards a lead SRE reviews each week.

Mid-market cloud and data brand,
Google Cloud Platform and data pipeline lead
Our BigQuery costs kept climbing with no owner. Dcrayon set up slot reservations, table partitioning, and budget alerts, and query spend became predictable again.
MNDA
BigQuery query spend, before and after
90 days
Query cost per reserved slot
Google Cloud Platform engagement paired with Dataflow pipelines and Pub/Sub ingestion. A billing export queried in BigQuery set the starting picture.

How Dcrayon delivers your Google Cloud Platform program across one quarter
A short walkthrough of a Dcrayon Google Cloud Platform engagement, from the week-one Score readout to a governed, cost-tagged environment by week twelve.
The Google Cloud Platform engineering standards we hold every build to
What ships as standard on every Dcrayon Google Cloud Platform build
Each standard below maps to a checkable control in your GCP org, set up and verified by the architect who owns your account.
Anomaly and cost monitoring
We wire Cloud Monitoring anomaly alerts, BigQuery billing forecasts, and Terraform drift detection into your GCP project from the first sprint.
FinOps and cost control
Billing export to BigQuery, resource labels, and committed use discount planning show cost per workload, not just total GCP spend.
Security and compliance guardrails
We apply organization policies, VPC Service Controls, and Security Command Center findings so SOC2, ISO 27001, and GDPR controls hold by default.
The three methods we run on every Google Cloud Platform engagement
Score, Plan, Compound. A GCP diagnostic, a one-quarter build plan, and the automation we run to keep cost and reliability in check.
Dcrayon Score (Google Cloud Platform axis)
A 150-factor review across five areas. The Google Cloud axis grades your project and folder layout, Committed Use Discount coverage, IAM and VPC Service Controls, Terraform state, and BigQuery adoption. Free on every proposal call.
Dcrayon Growth Formula (Google Cloud Platform plan)
A one-quarter plan that ties each GCP change, from GKE hardening to BigQuery tuning, back to a single operational metric you choose.
DcrayonAI (Google Cloud Platform toolkit)
Our internal tooling audits your GCP projects against the Score axes and produces a ranked fix list with cost estimates your CFO can budget.
How Dcrayon runs Google Cloud Platform work
Three repeatable practices that make each Google Cloud Platform cycle safer and cheaper than the last.
Step 1: Score
Free Dcrayon Score readout in one business day. A five-area Google Cloud review mapped to your billing export and real usage, giving one 0-100 number plus a ranked gap list. No follow-on commitment.
Step 2: Plan
A written 90-day Google Cloud plan tied to one operational metric you pick, such as p95 latency or cost per BigQuery query. A senior architect writes the Terraform and the SoW. Either side can end the work at day 90.
Step 3: Compound
Weekly working session with your senior architect, plus a monthly cost-and-reliability summary your finance team can read. The work stacks: IAM and network hardening first, then GKE and BigQuery adoption, then Cloud Build automation.
Other Cloud and Data solutions
Sibling Dcrayon services inside the Cloud and Data category. Programs clients often layer alongside Google Cloud Platform.

The Google Cloud Platform Score costs nothing. The one-quarter plan is yours to keep.
Across our 60+ active solutions retainers, the median 12-month waste we measure for teams running Google Cloud without a structured program lands in the Rs 6L to Rs 90L band. Often idle VMs, unused disks, and on-demand pricing. Book the scoping call to size yours.

Google Cloud Platform FAQs
Most Google Cloud Platform engagements begin within a few weeks of signing, once we have project access. Post-incident work is prioritized and starts sooner.
Both. Some clients hand us the whole GCP practice; others keep us as senior architect and escalation for their own engineers. We scope per account.
Most Google Cloud engagements start at Rs 4 to 8 lakhs per month in India, or USD 6 to 15 thousand per month for global clients. Audit-only work, such as a billing and IAM review, starts lower.
Yes. Every proposal call includes a free five-axis GCP Score readout, with no follow-on commitment required.
