Google Cloud integrations that recover from failure on their own.

Google Cloud integrations that connect your website and product to business systems through API services, Pub/Sub events and managed retries.

Point to point, then chaos.

Direct connections between systems work when there are three. At ten, one outage takes the rest down with it.

What's included

Loosely coupled. Closely watched.

We connect your digital products to the systems behind them, using Google Cloud's managed services for the plumbing.

Build API services

Cloud Run services between your website and business systems, handling authentication and field mapping, and shielding each side from the other's changes.

Design event-driven workflows

Pub/Sub, Eventarc and Workflows chaining steps such as order to invoice to fulfilment, each step independent and restartable.

Handle every error

Retries with backoff, dead-letter topics, idempotent handlers and alerts, so a failure is caught and replayed instead of lost.

Receive webhooks safely

Signed webhook endpoints for Stripe, HubSpot, Shopify and others, verified, queued and processed without keeping the sender waiting.

Security, by consideration.

Trust is part of the build.

For your Google Cloud project, we consider service accounts, workloads, data stores and deployment permissions as part of one connected build.

Google Cloud integration questions.

A few things worth discussing before your Google Cloud integrations takes shape.

What is Google Cloud Pub/Sub used for?

Google Cloud Pub/Sub is used to pass messages between systems without connecting them directly. One service publishes an event, such as an order placed, and any number of others receive it. Pub/Sub holds messages until they are processed, which protects integrations when a downstream system is slow or down.

How do you handle failed messages in Pub/Sub?

Failed messages in Pub/Sub are handled with retry policies and dead-letter topics. After a set number of failed attempts, a message moves to a dead-letter topic instead of blocking the rest. We alert on dead-lettered messages and build a simple replay process for once the cause is fixed.

Should webhooks go to our website or a separate Google Cloud service?

Webhooks should usually go to a separate Google Cloud service, not your website server. A small Cloud Run endpoint verifies the signature, queues the event in Pub/Sub and responds at once. The sender gets a fast answer, and slow processing never affects site performance or loses the event.

How long does a Google Cloud integration take to build?

A single webhook-to-CRM flow is quick. Event-driven workflows across several systems take longer, mostly in mapping and failure testing, which is where integrations usually break.
