What is a Landing Zone on Google Cloud?

A Landing Zone is a pre-built cloud environment that provides a secure, scalable foundation on Google Cloud for your enterprise workloads. It includes everything you need to get started safely, such as folder structure, IAM, networking, and security policies, based on Google Cloud best practices.

At Crystalloids, we deliver your Landing Zone using reusable Terraform modules and GitOps automation and customise the rest to fit your organisation.

We build it to do more than launch your cloud; it’s designed to deliver insights from day one. 

Cloud Landing Zone

Why it matters?

Most cloud initiatives fail not because of the cloud itself,  but because they lack the right foundation. Without structure, security, and automation from day one, cloud environments quickly become chaotic, unscalable, and vulnerable.

A Google Cloud Landing Zone gives your organisation a secure, data-ready starting point, accelerating time to value. It ensures that best practices in IAM, networking, and compliance are baked in, freeing your teams to innovate faster, operate securely, and confidently scale.

Whether launching your first workload or modernising your entire stack, a strong landing zone sets the pace for cloud success.

How does it work

Our approach to building your Google Cloud Landing Zone is centred on modular, automated deployment tailored to your unique needs.

While our solutions are designed to be 80-90% standard, we provide semi-customisation for each client, ensuring no two systems will be identical, even for companies in the same industry. We set you up with modules like batch and streaming data ingestion and a robust modelling layer, which are fundamental for any data-driven client.

We configure core elements such as a standardised resource hierarchy, secure networking with Shared VPCs and firewall rules, and enforce least-privilege Identity and Access Management (IAM). Robust security measures are applied by default, ensuring strong data protection and regulatory adherence from day one. This entire infrastructure is powered by Infrastructure as Code and CI/CD, ensuring controlled, consistent, and auditable deployments.

With this approach, you get immediate access to a fully functional cloud environment with essential components pre-configured for your data projects. This enables you to start realising value right away.

Landing Zone Use Cases

Once your Cloud Foundation is in place, your teams can move faster, safer, and with more autonomy. Here’s what that unlocks:

Dev team self-service

One CI trigger spins up fully-governed projects—complete with IAM, VPCs, and budget controls.

Secure multi-brand isolation

Use Shared VPCs and hierarchical firewalls to separate brand environments (e.g., PCI vs e-commerce).

Regional disaster recovery

Re-deploy to a secondary region with pre-configured modules for GCS, Cloud SQL, DNS, and more.

Audit-ready compliance

Enforce consistent security, IAM, and encryption policies across all projects.
