Strong growth in Google’s cloud business helped buoy an otherwise challenging quarter for Alphabet, as ad revenues across Search and YouTube struggle to rebound to pre-pandemic levels.
For Q2 2020, Google Cloud — which includes Google Cloud Platform (GCP) and G Suite — brought in $3.007 billion, up 43% from $2.1 billion a year prior and $2.77 billion the previous quarter. The growth was led by GCP infrastructure offerings and the data and analytics platform.
