Harness Collaborates with Google Cloud to Bring AI to Software Delivery

Built on Google Cloud’s Vertex AI platform, Harness AI delivers speed and trust for modern software delivery

Harness, the AI DevOps Platform™ company, today announced it is collaborating with Google Cloud to address one of the most urgent challenges in technology: accelerating software delivery in the era of AI. While AI is transforming how code is created, the greater opportunity lies in applying it across the entire software delivery lifecycle so that code moves quickly, securely, and reliably through every stage into production.

Harness AI  is built to meet this challenge by applying intelligence and automation to every stage after code, supporting DevOps, Testing, Security, and FinOps practices. This approach advances Harness’ mission to make software delivery more efficient for enterprises, helping teams eliminate toil and achieve tangible productivity gains.

These capabilities are enabled by Google Cloud’s Vertex AI platform, which provides private, dedicated instances of leading models, including Google’s Gemini 1.5 and 2.5 model series, on a secure, enterprise-grade foundation with built-in privacy, governance, scalability, and compliance guardrails. With Vertex AI, customer data is never stored or used for training. This combination provides enterprises with the security, reliability, and compliance guardrails to adopt Harness AI without risk.

“With Harness AI, developers can focus on innovation instead of toil. That means automating the work after code – testing, deployments, optimization – with the scale and resilience global enterprises demand,” said Jyoti Bansal, co-founder and CEO of Harness. “Together with Google Cloud’s Vertex AI, we are enabling teams to deliver in days what once took weeks, without compromising security or compliance.”

“Enterprises want the speed and creativity AI can bring, but they also need the security, governance, and scale to trust it in production,” added Ryan J. Salva, Senior Director of Product Management, Google Cloud. “Harness AI shows exactly how Vertex AI can deliver on those needs, helping global development teams innovate faster, operate more efficiently, and maintain the resilience their businesses depend on.”
