# ClickHouse Cloud on GCP Available in Public Beta

## ClickHouse Cloud is now available on Google Cloud Platform (GCP) in public Beta. 

ClickHouse Cloud was launched on December 6, 2022, enabling ClickHouse users to build real-time applications without the devops overhead of a self-managed installation.

TL;DR - Get started [now](https://clickhouse.cloud/signUp?loc=gcp-beta-blog) by launching a GCP service in minutes.

One of the key benefits of ClickHouse Cloud is the simplicity of getting started. With just a few clicks, you can set up a service, and autoscale automatically based on your workload's needs, so you never have to overprovision or pay for unused capacity. We have already seen a number of ClickHouse users using ClickHouse as a [‘speed layer’](https://clickhouse.com/blog/clickhouse-bigquery-migrating-data-for-realtime-queries?loc=gcp-beta-blog) atop BigQuery. This announcement allows these users to keep their data resident in a single cloud provider.

## Depending on your needs, you can select from two different options:

* Development: Best suited for small workloads
    * Storage: Up to 1 TB
    * Memory: 16 GiB
* Production: Designed for production environments and workloads that need additional storage and memory
    * Storage: Unlimited
    * Memory: 24 GiB+ total memory

## Feature Highlights

ClickHouse Cloud on GCP offers the following features:

* **Google Cloud Storage integration**: Out-of-the-box integration to move from cloud storage to ClickHouse Cloud. And several other integrations for you to build end-to-end solutions, see more information [here](https://clickhouse.com/docs/en/integrations?loc=gcp-beta-blog).
* **End-to-end encryption**: At ClickHouse, security is a top priority, and the service offers encryption on the wire with TLS and data-at-rest encryption with Google Cloud Storage encryption.
* **Endpoint security**: The IP Access List feature offers the ability to secure endpoints so only select IPs can access data.
* **Built in SQL Console** for data exploration and visualization: 
    * Seamlessly and securely connect to your database
    * Explore and query your data instantly
    * Build rich visualizations from your query results in 2-3 clicks
    * Collaborate with your team using shared queries

It takes just a few minutes to set up your new service in GCP and get going. See the steps below:
