Google’s Edge offering gets an AI edge
Google is bringing AI capabilities to its Google Distributed Cloud (GDC) Edge and on-premises offering.
The company will be making its Gemini models available via GDC by partnering with Nvidia on Nvidia Blackwell systems that can be purchased through Google.

“Nvidia and Google Distributed Cloud provide a secure AI platform, bringing Gemini models to enterprise data centers and regulated industries. With Nvidia Blackwell infrastructure and confidential computing, Google Distributed Cloud enhances privacy and security, and delivers industry-leading performance on DGX B200 and HGX B200 systems, available from Dell,” said Justin Boitano, VP of enterprise AI software at Nvidia.
The Edge AI offering will be available in public preview starting in Q3 2025.
“Gemini on Google Distributed Cloud will empower ServiceNow to augment powerful agentic AI capabilities such as reasoning in our existing systems via robust APIs. This strategic deployment allows us to explore and implement cutting-edge advancements while upholding our commitment to customer trust and data protection,” added Pat Casey, CTO & EVP of DevOps at Google customer ServiceNow.
In addition to adding Gemini to GDC, Google’s Vertex AI platform will also be available on GDC.
GDC is Google’s fully managed on-prem and Edge cloud solution. The first version of Google’s Distributed Cloud offering was announced in October 2021, and the company launched an air-gapped version of GDC in July 2024. In October 2024, the company integrated NetApp’s storage and intelligent solutions into GDC.
