Awesome. Any GCP folks here have an ETA on the new California region? Can't wait until we can provision clusters across two regions (California <=> Oregon) while keeping the speed of light latency low.

The ETA for all of California (United States), Frankfurt (Germany), Hamina (Finland), Montreal (Canada), Mumbai (India), Netherlands and Sao Paulo (Brazil) is "2017".

If you contact Sales, they may be able to provide additional detail under NDA. https://cloud.google.com/contact/

Correct! If you've signed the GCP NDA there is a lot of additional clarity for upcoming regions.

Please reach out to Sales and have them contact me if need be (contact info in profile).

Nobody at Google will provide future release dates that aren't yet published. Launch dates can slip.

This is incorrect. We happily share a transparent and very open view into 3+ quarters ahead with customers and partners under NDA! We just publish for broader public when its open for the broader public.

(Source: me, the GCP roadmap Program Manager. Who also appreciates how consistently our NDA is upheld internally and externally.)

what is the point of an NDA around launch dates?
