Google Cloud has introduced AI-powered Quick Assessments within its Migration Center to streamline infrastructure modernization. These assessments automate total cost of ownership (TCO) modeling and service mapping, replacing weeks of manual analysis with near-instant insights. Designed for enterprise customers, the new capabilities generate optimized target bills of materials, projected savings, and offer an agentic assistant for financial recommendations. This feature, powered by Gemini, is now available in the console, accelerating cloud migration planning.

  • Automated TCO Modeling and Service Mapping for Cloud Migration

    AI-powered Quick Assessments in Migration Center deliver near-instant total cost of ownership (TCO) modeling and automated service mapping. This new capability replaces traditional manual discovery, significantly accelerating infrastructure modernization planning and providing immediate, actionable visibility into TCO and ROI.

  • Instant Compute Engine TCO Estimates from On-Premises Data

    The AI-assisted Quick Assessment for on-premises workloads automates infrastructure evaluation. It converts VMware inventory exports (like RVTools) or aggregated infrastructure inputs directly into precise Compute Engine cost targets, offering rapid financial modeling.

  • Advanced Architecture Modeling and Customizable Financial Controls

    The new assessments support advanced architecture modeling, including the latest-generation Gen4 compute instances and high-performance Hyperdisk storage pools. Teams can also customize on-premises baseline cost assumptions to match internal accounting standards for accurate financial projections.

  • Context-Aware Agentic Chat and Automated Business Case Export

    A new agentic assistant recommends tailored technical cost optimizations based on specific business constraints and explains the underlying logic. It also automatically generates ready-to-use executive reports, capturing the complete recommended bill of materials (BOM), TCO comparison, and ROI analysis.
