Resonance Audio
We recently released a new spatial audio software development kit called Resonance Audio. It’s based on technology from Google’s VR Audio SDK, and it works at scale across mobile and desktop platforms. Links to the docs and GitHub are on the post.
Fast Pair
Fast Pair is a hassle-free process to pair your Bluetooth devices on all supported Android devices running Google Play services 11.7 and later with compatibility back to Marshmallow. Check out the post for an example of how it works.
Cloud SQL for PostgreSQL
We have added support for high availability and read replicas in Cloud SQL for PostgreSQL which will help you ensure your database workloads are fault tolerant. Diagrams and details are on the post.
GCP Mumbai region
The first Google Cloud Platform region in India is now open. Hosting applications in the new region can improve latency from 20–90% for end users in the area compared to hosting them in the closest in Singapore.
Eager Execution for TensorFlow
We recently introduced eager execution for TensorFlow. It’s an imperative, define-by-run interface where operations are executed immediately as they are called from Python. This makes it easier to get started with TensorFlow, and can make research and development more intuitive. Code and all the links are on the post.
Firebase Predictions Beta
Oh, and in case you missed it, Firebase Predictions is now available to build dynamic user groups based on predicted behavior, determined using a machine learned model. These user groups can then be targeted using Firebase Cloud Messaging, Remote Config and more. For more on how to use Firebase Predictions for your app, check out the post.
