Today, Google announced Gemma, a family of lightweight, state-of-the art open models built from the same research and technology that we used to create the Gemini models. We’re pleased to share that Google Cloud customers can get started today customizing and building with Gemma models in Vertex AI and running them on Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE). The release of Gemma and our updated platform capabilities are the next phase of our commitment to making AI more open and accessible to developers on Google Cloud.
Google Cloud welcomes Gemma, a powerful and accessible open-source AI model:
- High-performance, compact size: Gemma, a new open-source AI model from Google, shares technology with our top-tier Gemini models, offering similar performance in smaller packages. Choose between 2B and 7B versions, each with pre-trained and fine-tuned options for research and development.
- Developer-friendly: Gemma seamlessly integrates with popular tools like Colab, Kaggle, JAX, PyTorch, Keras 3.0, and Hugging Face Transformers. Run it on your laptop, workstation, or leverage Google Cloud’s power.
- Customization and deployment: Build and customize your AI solutions directly in Vertex AI and deploy them on GKE for optimal performance.
- Industry-leading optimization: For maximized performance, Gemma is optimized for NVIDIA GPUs thanks to our collaboration with NVIDIA.
