The NET+ GCP program manager, along with our Service Advisory Board, hosts regular subscriber calls where campus cloud teams meet to discuss their challenges, share lessons learned and collaborate to find the best answers for their institutions' GCP deployment. We regularly bring in Google engineers or product managers to discuss services and give feedback on how GCP features could best serve the unique needs of higher education institutions. You can see the list of past topics on the Cloud Infrastructure Community Program Calendar.
If you are from a subscribing institution, contact Bob Flynn bflynn@internet2.edu to be added to our distribution and access lists. If your institution is not a subscriber, contact Bob to talk about joining the program.
