Run coding agents on Google Cloud infrastructure
Google Cloud Platform provides global infrastructure with enterprise-grade security. SAM integrates with GCP using Workload Identity Federation — no long-lived credentials needed. Run coding agents on Compute Engine VMs across 8 regions worldwide.
Why use GCP with SAM
Workload Identity Federation
No long-lived service account keys — SAM uses GCP's WIF for secure, short-lived credential exchange.
Global Regions
Iowa, South Carolina, Oregon, Belgium, Frankfurt, London, Singapore, and Tokyo — true global coverage.
Enterprise Security
GCP's IAM, audit logging, and compliance certifications for organizations with strict security requirements.
Compute Engine Integration
SAM provisions Compute Engine VMs with the right machine types for coding agent workloads.
Get started in four steps
Set Up WIF
Configure a Workload Identity Pool and Provider in your GCP project following SAM's setup guide.
Connect to SAM
Enter your GCP project ID, WIF pool details, and service account in SAM settings.
Choose a Region
Select from 8 global regions for your VMs.
Run Agents
Submit tasks and SAM provisions Compute Engine VMs using short-lived WIF credentials.
What you can build
Enterprise deployments
For organizations already on GCP with existing IAM policies, security controls, and compliance requirements.
Global team distribution
GCP's 8 regions let you run agents close to your team — regardless of where they are in the world.
Google ecosystem integration
Pair with Gemini CLI and Google's AI models for a fully Google-native coding agent stack.
Frequently asked questions
What is Workload Identity Federation?
WIF lets SAM exchange short-lived tokens with GCP without storing long-lived service account keys. It's Google's recommended approach for third-party integrations.
Which GCP machine types does SAM use?
SAM provisions standard Compute Engine instances optimized for coding workloads. You can configure the VM size per project.
Do I need a GCP billing account?
Yes — SAM uses a BYOC model. VMs are provisioned on your GCP project, and you pay Google directly for compute usage.
