Google Cloud's flagship conference; a general hyperscaler event tracked because data vendors sponsor it heavily. Held at Moscone Center, San Francisco through 2019; 2020 became the online 'Next OnAir' series; 2021 and 2022 were online; in person again in San Francisco in August 2023, then at Mandalay Bay, Las Vegas from 2024. Regional 'Next' events also ran in Tokyo (Next Tokyo, separate editions with id_suffix 'tokyo') and London (Next '19 UK, id_suffix 'london'; no London Next after 2019 found). Event site moved from cloud.withgoogle.com/next (to 2025) to googlecloudevents.com/next-vegas (2026-). Social accounts are Google Cloud's corporate accounts (the event has no dedicated ones), taken from the event site footer.
