BARCELONA, March 5 2025 – To accelerate global access to its cutting-edge storage solutions, Rakuten Symphony is extending its strategic alliance with Google Cloud by making Rakuten Cloud-Native Storage available on the Google Cloud Marketplace. Rakuten Symphony’s software-defined storage (SDS) solution and Rakuten Cloud-Native Storage have helped Rakuten Symphony reach new customers and provide a persistent storage solution for Google Distributed Cloud offerings.

As Rakuten Symphony’s product suite has expanded globally, Rakuten Symphony is reaching new enterprise customers in vertical markets, including retail, manufacturing, entertainment and media. By leveraging Google Cloud’s powerful infrastructure, Rakuten Symphony is helping customers connect the latest cloud technology and apply generative AI solutions to streamline operations, boost efficiency, and drive innovation.

“Bringing Rakuten Cloud-Native Storage to Google Cloud Marketplace will help customers quickly deploy, manage, and grow the storage solution on Google Cloud's trusted, global infrastructure," said Dai Vu, Managing Director, Marketplace & ISV GTM Programs at Google Cloud. “Rakuten can now securely scale and support customers on their digital transformation journeys.”
