Google is partnering with mobile software specialist Kinvey to help developers build convenient applications in the increasingly diverse mobile universe.<br />The apps are expected to meet HIPAA requirements and save developers tons of money that they would normally delegate to paying for their own servers.<br />The sticking point behind the duo's partnership is that Google Compute Cloud (GCP) will run the HIPAA-compliant mobile platform, making GCP the first public cloud with such a platform.<br />Public clouds are a huge set of servers, storage and networking owned and run by a singular company and then rented out to customers who don't want to build more of their own data centers.<br />Kinvey's technology delivers tracking and reporting tools to its customers in order to show where the data flows, as well as who has access to it.<br />Kinvey and Google hope to offer developers in sectors from health care to life sciences a secure way to build and launch their apps.
