GitLab was recognized for its achievements in Application Development - DevOps within the Google Cloud ecosystem. Over the past year, GitLab has expanded its strategic partnership with Google Cloud to deliver secure AI offerings to the enterprise. GitLab leverages the Vertex AI Model Garden to embed AI-powered features into the DevSecOps platform with a privacy-first approach. This empowers organizations to harness the benefits of AI for faster, more efficient software delivery while protecting data, intellectual property, and source code.

Additionally, the expanded partnership integrates GitLab’s source code management, planning, CI/CD workflow, advanced security, and compliance capabilities with the unified data plane in Google’s Cloud console and Artifact Registry. The integration reduces the complexity and security risks associated with multiple-point solutions in a DevSecOps toolchain, enabling organizations to develop and ship software faster with security integrated from the start.

This recognition builds on the long-standing relationship between GitLab and Google Cloud beginning in 2018.
