I have no clue the intent of this buy, but Google Cloud does have an IAM feature today[0]. I'd bet they are looking to pull in talent to help improve that feature, or maybe to make the IAM more than just IAM and handle all the things that Bitium does today.
You have to remember that Google Cloud also has bought StackDriver and Firebase and continues to grow those products.

- vgt 9y agoand Kaggle and api.ai and apigee and Qwiklabs and Orbitera and Anvato and you get the point :)
- arunpn123 9y agoApologies for taking it offtopic, but can't you just move internally?
- kyrra 9y agoLateral movement here is really easy. But I'm at a smaller Google office, which limits the options I have for other teams without moving to a different location. EDIT: I ranked location over product area when I picked where to interview, and I'm still happy with my choice. I ended up in payments, which I was not thrilled about when I started, but I've come to enjoy it. There are lots of technical challenges when you are dealing with the payment volume Google moves.
