Google is “Making it easier to discover datasets” (Google blog). This new service would, for instance, let you find the newly released USPTO Patent Trial and Appeal Board (PTAB) Data (kaggle.com) or this new Dataset and Challenge for Image Captioning (Google blog). Remaining on the topic of dataset-backed competitions, here is one that aims at making ML more inclusive — “Introducing the Inclusive Images Competition” (Google blog)

Hybrid cloud requires partners of all kinds and Cisco is an important one for Google: “General availability of Cisco Hybrid Cloud Platform for Google Cloud” (Google blog)

If you were excited by the Google+Unity matchmaking announcement from a few weeks ago, Open Match is now here: “Flexible and extensible matchmaking for games” (Google Blog)

As the head of Google’s technical infrastructure, Urs is in quite a unique position to understand where Cloud is headed — “Google infrastructure chief Urs Hölzle: This is the future of software and the cloud” (siliconangle.com)
