METGLOBAL'S PREVIOUS GOOGLE CLOUD PARTNER AND THE NEED TO EXPLORE OTHER OPTIONS
The first time they moved to Google Cloud, they worked with a different Google Cloud partner. At that time, their support was inadequate, sharing information was not regular, and even invoices had delays. For this reason, they searched for a different business partner and contacted Kartaca.
WHY METGLOBAL CHOSE KARTACA AS A GOOGLE CLOUD PARTNER
The most critical factor in Metglobal's decision in this process was their confidence in the working culture and technical competence of Kartaca. Besides, Kartaca's experiences in the cloud area and successful projects in the past also positively affected their decisions. They believed that Kartaca would manage communications much better and decided to work with Kartaca as a Google Cloud partner.

After working with Kartaca, they had continuous and up-to-date information on new Google Cloud services in line with Metglobal's business model and requirements, follow-up of their support requests, and announcements regarding changes in their service conditions. They were also pleased with the support provided by Kartaca in terms of cost optimization, Google Cloud collaboration, and architecture.

METGLOBAL'S COMMENT ON GOOGLE CLOUD
"We are satisfied with Google Cloud. We think it is convenient and easy to manage and catered to our needs. Google Kubernetes Engine, Bigtable, Memory Store, and Cloud SQL are the most used services. With Google Kubernetes Engine, we can scale according to traffic changes and optimize resource usage. With Bigtable, we can reach higher data capacity at a lower cost. We also migrated our own managed databases to Google Cloud services and made it easier to manage resource allocation with flexible pre-purchase options." - Utku Altınkaya, Metglobal CTO.
