Case Study: TAO achieves greater agility and global scalability with Google Cloud Platform

Open Assessment Technologies: Aiming to modernize educational systems around the world with Google Cloud

TAO, developed by Open Assessment Technologies in Luxembourg, needed to make its open-source assessment platform more agile, scalable, and accessible to users worldwide. As it moved away from a monolithic application and into microservices, the team chose Google Cloud Platform and its cloud infrastructure to support the transformation.

Google Cloud Platform helped implement a modern architecture using GKE, Bigtable, Pub/Sub, and Cloud Storage, along with local architectural support and partner expertise. The result was improved agility and scalability, reduced costs, and greater team focus on innovation, with TAO now serving users in 194 countries and scaling more easily without infrastructure limits.
