Google has agreed with SpaceX to use the Starlink satellite Internet. This is reported by The Verge.

Elon Musk's company will provide access to satellite Internet for corporate customers of the Google Cloud service. As part of the agreement, SpaceX will install Starlink terminals in Google's cloud data centers around the world. It is specified that thanks to the satellite Internet, the corporation's customers will be able to quickly transfer data to remote regions.

SpaceX will install the first terminal and help deploy communications at Google's data center in New Albany, Ohio. Google Cloud customers will be able to use the new service by the end of the year. Google promised to disclose additional details of the agreement and plans for the development of the network later.

"Applications and services running in the cloud can be transformed for organizations, whether they operate in a highly integrated network or remote environment," said Urs Hölzle, vice president of infrastructure at Google Cloud. Helzle added that the company is excited to partner with SpaceX to help set up "seamless, secure, and fast access" for Google customers.

"The combination of Starlink's high — speed, low-latency broadband and Google's infrastructure and capabilities provides global organizations with the secure and fast connectivity that modern organizations expect," Gwynne Shotwell, President and Chief Operating Officer of SpaceX, said in a press release.

At the moment, SpaceX has launched 1,625 satellites, 1,550 of which are in Earth orbit. In 2015, Elon Musk's company raised an investment of one billion dollars from Google and the Fidelity venture fund.
