Google cloud addicts: Now you can juggle your web apps from your Android smartie

Google developers looking to keep an eye on their cloud processes now have an app for Android, dubbed Cloud Console, that will allow remote monitoring of the Chocolate Factory's Cloud Platform.


"Imagine being away from your desk and receiving automatic alerts when an issue occurs in your Google App Engine app," said Michael Thomsen, a product manager on the Google Cloud Platform team in a blog post.


"Or waiting at the airport and stopping your test VMs before leaving for vacation. With the beta launch of Cloud Console for Android, managing Google Cloud Platform from your phone or tablet is possible."


The smartphone app shows network performance issues, a running total of billing costs, as well as monitoring app loads and virtual machine networking information. A cloud monitoring service will also cover automated incident tracking, and send out an alert if services break preset limits.


There's also a limited level of remote control via the app. Developers can change the App Engine version and begin or end a Compute Engine instance, or view graphs for both.


If you're a developer with an iPhone, don't panic: Google has said an iOS version of Cloud Console is under development and will be launched when ready.


While Google's new app will no doubt be welcomed by some, the advertising giant is a little behind the game. Amazon Web Services users have had a basic version of this kind of app (for iOS and Android) since 2013 and Bezos & Co issued the latest update earlier this month. ®
