Project Summary

D3V Technology Solutions designed and configured the Google Cloud infrastructure for a medical-software-focused client, setting up a custom VPC and serverless VPC access to secure Cloud Functions. The team provisioned a NextJS frontend and Node.js backend, connected backend functions to Cloud SQL (Postgres), and performed end-to-end testing. The vendor was responsive and guided the client through technical complexities.

Key Challenges

Design and implement a secure and optimized Google Cloud Network/VPC
Set up a serverless VPC access connector to secure Cloud Functions
Enable an internal-only backend and service-to-service communication between frontend and backend

Project Deliverables

Google Cloud networking setup and custom VPC
Serverless VPC connector configuration
Deployment/configuration of Cloud Functions (NextJS frontend and Node.js backend)
Cloud SQL (Postgres) connectivity setup
Infrastructure provisioning according to GCP best practices

Project Solution

D3V designed and provisioned Google Cloud networking for an app running two Cloud Functions (a public NextJS frontend and a Node.js backend). They created a custom VPC (deleted the default VPC), configured a serverless VPC connector to allow Cloud Functions to access a Cloud SQL (Postgres) instance, and advised on identity- and network-based controls to make the backend internal-only. Their certified engineers applied GCP best practices to deliver a cost‑effective, optimized networking setup.

Project Outcome

End-to-end tests validated functionality
Responsive collaboration and prompt addressing of feedback
Improved client understanding of technical challenges and requirements
