StubHub, the world’s largest ticket marketplace, recently announced Google Cloud Platform (GCP) and Pivotal Software, Inc. as its public cloud infrastructure providers.

StubHub is going all-in on Google Cloud and Pivotal and will leverage the breadth and depth of their services—including machine learning, analytics, databases, serverless computing, and developer tools—to innovate faster than ever before and to meet the demands of its growth around the world. This collaboration lays the foundation for StubHub to pioneer the next generation of digital products and inspiring event experiences.

“StubHub is all about the customer. Everything we create, from our mobile products to our customer service, reflects a deep desire to put the needs of fans first,” said StubHub CTO Matt Swann. “We intend to set the bar for what highly curated fan experiences can be at scale before, during and after the event, everywhere fans expect us to be. We have bold plans for innovation in the years ahead.”

StubHub is changing the way the company innovates by increasing its focus on mobile products and artificial intelligence while replacing legacy infrastructure to speed developer productivity. Pivotal and Google will empower StubHub to get to market quickly, at massive scale, and expand its global footprint. StubHub can now build new services and experiments once and deploy them globally in minutes, surfacing insights to fans in real-time.

“Digital transformation is on the mind of every technology leader, especially in industries requiring the capability to rapidly respond to changing consumer expectations. To adapt, enterprises need to bring together the best of modern developer environments with software-driven customer experiences designed to drive richer engagement,” said Bill Cook, President of Pivotal. “We’re excited to collaborate with StubHub to help them transform the event experience by leveraging Pivotal Cloud Foundry (“PCF”) and Google Cloud to unleash software-developer productivity, as well as Pivotal Labs to help build next-generation applications and user experiences.”

“There is strong alignment between StubHub’s technology journey and the strengths of Google’s partnership with Pivotal,” said Brian Stevens, CTO of Google Cloud. “Google Cloud Platform’s global presence, scale, and world-class AI and data solutions, coupled with Pivotal’s services and platform will help StubHub offer the best customer experience.”
