• Google announced plans to purchase a small Tel Aviv-based startup that helps companies move their internal corporate infrastructure to cloud providers.
• Velostrata has raised $ 31.5 million since 2014, pitching itself as a service that works with a lot of different providers like AWS, Azure, and — more recently — Google’s cloud computing service. 
• This acquisition could mean that Velostrata will no longer offer services that help clients move to competitors.
• The terms of the deal haven’t been disclosed.
