Google will be the cloud provider in SpaceX

Reuters: H won a deal to provide cloud services to Elon Musk's SpaceX, which launched a series of satellites Starlink to provide high speed internet.

SpaceX will create ground stations in Google data centers connected to Starlink satellites, enabling fast and secure internet services through the Google Cloud, Google said.

This service is expected to be available in the second half of 2021.

The deal comes at a time when demand for cloud-computing services has grown, with players like Corp and Amazon.com Inc to dominate the market. Cloud companies have also tapped into the telecom sector due to increased demand for 5G connectivity.

Google's cloud computing accounts for about 7% of its total revenue since the last earnings report.

Last October, Microsoft won a similar deal with SpaceX to connect the Azure cloud computing platform to Starlink.

The private SpaceX, known for its reusable rockets, increases production of satellites for Starlink, a growing fleet of hundreds of internet-radiating satellites that Musk hopes will yield enough to help fund SpaceX's interplanetary goals.
