Case Study: Book Creator achieves scalable, compliant classroom creativity with Google Cloud Platform

Book Creator Engaging students with the thrill of authorship

Book Creator, an education technology company in the U.K., helps students create digital books and move from consuming content to making it. As demand grew and the company focused on serving millions of K-12 users with a small team, it needed a scalable, secure, and accessible platform. It partnered with Google Cloud Platform and used services such as App Engine, Compute Engine, Firebase, and Cloud CDN to support its cloud-based classroom tool.

Google Cloud Platform helped Book Creator build a serverless, cloud-native application that can scale with variable workloads, simplify infrastructure management, and meet strict GDPR, FERPA, and COPPA requirements. The result is a highly accessible product that serves 2 million monthly active users and supports the creation of 24 million books annually, while enabling a team of just 13 people to operate efficiently and expand features like AutoDraw and Chromebook App Hub visibility.
