What is the use of Pub/Sub in Google Cloud?

Last updated on September 25, 2022 @ 8:41 pm

Pub/Sub is a powerful messaging system that enables applications to send and receive messages across multiple nodes. It is a core part of the Google Cloud Platform platform and can be used to communicate with applications running in the Google Cloud Platform Platform.

Pub/Sub can be used to send messages to and receive messages from any Google Cloud Platform service. You can use Pub/Sub to send messages to services such as Compute, Storage, BigQuery, and Cloud Pub/Sub.

PRO TIP: Pub/Sub is a great tool for managing Google cloud resources, but it’s important to be aware of its potential limitations. For example, Pub/Sub doesn’t currently support cross-project or cross-region communication. Additionally, Pub/Sub isn’t designed to guarantee delivery of messages, so there’s a possibility that some messages may be lost.

Pub/Sub can also be used to send messages to services that are not part of the Google Cloud Platform platform, such as legacy software that you want to upgrade to use Pub/Sub.

Pub/Sub is a great way to communicate between applications and services. It can help you to scale your applications by allowing them to communicate with each other across multiple nodes.

Pub/Sub also makes it easy to upgrade legacy applications to use the Pub/Sub messaging system.
