PayPal's head of tech says the payments giant is working with Google to get 25% of its traffic onto the public cloud in time for the 2020 holiday shopping season

PayPal's public cloud journey began in late 2016. While the company had some experience via acquisitions of companies like Venmo that were developed in the public cloud, its core platform still resided completely on physical servers.

"It gave us an opportunity to learn through a somewhat small and low-risk use case," Shivananda said. "Then take all those learnings from there and apply to all the other use cases that we'd eventually put in the public cloud." For example, on a server-by-server comparison, the public cloud was more expensive than maintaining servers on premise. However, getting first-hand experience allowed PayPal to better understand the economic benefits public clouds offered through the flexibility it gave firms when it came to computing power.

That being said, Shivananda did leave the door open to further adoption, saying portions of PayPal's data could eventually sit in the public cloud.
