The Problem

Why teams call us about Google Cloud Pub/Sub

Unacked messages accumulate because the ack deadline is shorter than the work takes
Ordering keys were added late and throughput is now capped by a handful of hot keys
The same message is delivered more than once to subscribers that were never made idempotent
A subscription backlog is growing and the retention window will expire before it drains
Dataflow autoscaling reacts to the backlog too late and the lag never recovers
Push endpoints return errors under load and the retry behaviour makes the load worse
Dead-letter topics were configured correctly and nothing consumes them
Delivery and egress charges are climbing faster than the event volume behind them
Our Services

Google Cloud Pub/Sub Consulting & Support

Every engagement is staffed by a senior Google Cloud Pub/Sub engineer — no juniors, no ticket queues.

01

Pub/Sub Architecture & Design

We design Google Cloud Pub/Sub deployments that handle global-scale event streaming with the right subscription types, ordering keys, and retention policies.

  • Topic and subscription topology design
  • Pull vs push subscription model selection
  • Message ordering key design for FIFO within partitions
  • Dead-letter topic configuration and retry policy
02

Dataflow & Analytics Integration

We design and implement Dataflow pipelines, BigQuery streaming inserts, and event-driven architectures on top of Pub/Sub — connecting your streaming data to the tools your team already uses.

  • Pub/Sub to BigQuery streaming via Dataflow templates
  • Apache Beam pipeline development for stream processing
  • Pub/Sub + Cloud Functions event-driven architecture
  • Cross-region replication with multi-region topics
03

Migration to Google Cloud Pub/Sub

Migrating from Kafka, RabbitMQ, or another on-premises broker? We map message semantics and re-architect consumers for the Pub/Sub pull model.

  • Kafka to Pub/Sub topic and consumer group mapping
  • RabbitMQ exchange/queue to Pub/Sub topic/subscription
  • Kafka Connect Pub/Sub connector deployment
  • Offset and acknowledgment model translation
04

Performance & Cost Optimization

Pub/Sub costs scale with data volume and operations. We tune your configuration to maximize throughput and minimize costs, especially for high-volume streaming workloads.

  • Subscriber throughput tuning with flow control and batch size
  • Pub/Sub Lite vs standard Pub/Sub cost modeling
  • Message batching and compression configuration
  • Subscription acknowledgment deadline optimization
How It Works

What actually happens next

11–2 weeks

Topic and subscription assessment

We review topic and subscription layout, ack deadlines, flow control, ordering keys, retry policies and dead-letter routing against the delivery guarantees your consumers actually rely on.

2Within a week

Written findings and plan

Prioritised findings with the reasoning attached, separating what is a Pub/Sub configuration problem from what is a subscriber problem.

3Scoped per engagement

Implementation alongside your team

We change subscription settings, subscriber client behaviour and Dataflow pipeline configuration with your engineers rather than around them. Every change is staged and reversible.

4Ongoing

Handover and optional cover

Runbooks for backlog recovery, dead-letter replay and subscriber scaling, plus 24/7 support with a 15-minute emergency SLA if you want it.

A senior engineer, not an SDR. No sales sequence attached.

How Our Support Actually Works

Beyond SLAs — the model behind senior-only, zero-cold-start expert access.

Named Engineers on Your Account

Every ticket is handled by a senior SME assigned to your account — not a pool of anonymous agents. Zero cold-start. No re-explaining your environment.

Live Escalation on Any Ticket

Any ticket can be escalated to a live session with your named engineer via calendar booking. No gatekeeping, no approval required — direct access, always.

Proactive Risk Mitigation

Quarterly health checks on your deployment plus shared intelligence from 50+ support customers — we surface risks before they reach production.

Critical Bug & CVE Intelligence

Proactive alerts on critical bugs and CVEs affecting your exact version, with version compliance monitoring so you're never caught off guard.

Licensing & Security Edge

Dedicated support for vendor license negotiations and compliance audits, plus bi-annual security reviews focused on your specific deployment.

Direct Product Roadmap Access

As the only vendor directly connected to the core engineering teams, AceMQ delivers exclusive early insights, strategic upgrade planning, and curated release summaries — tailored to your environment.

11+ Senior GCP Engineers

Every engagement is staffed with senior SMEs who have hands-on Pub/Sub production experience — not generalist cloud consultants learning on your project.

15-Minute Emergency SLA

Production streaming failures get a named engineer on the call within 15 minutes, around the clock — covering delivery failures, pipeline stalls, and IAM misconfigurations.

Broker Migration Specialists

We've migrated clients from Kafka, RabbitMQ, and on-prem brokers to Pub/Sub and know exactly where the ordering, offset, and schema translation gaps will bite you.

Enterprise Security Configuration

We configure least-privilege IAM bindings, VPC Service Controls perimeters, CMEK encryption, and Private Service Connect to meet your compliance requirements.

FAQs

Google Cloud Pub/Sub Questions Answered

Common questions about Google Cloud Pub/Sub consulting, support, and migrations.

Pub/Sub Lite is a zonal, capacity-managed service with significantly lower cost for high-volume, predictable workloads (think >1 TB/day). Standard Pub/Sub is serverless, globally distributed, and better for variable or unpredictable workloads. We model your throughput and access patterns to recommend the right product.

Yes. The key translation challenges are: Kafka's partition-based ordering model vs Pub/Sub's ordering key model, consumer group offset management vs Pub/Sub subscription state, and schema registry integration. We handle all of these and help re-architect consumers for the Pub/Sub pull model.

Pub/Sub supports ordered delivery within a message ordering key — messages with the same key are delivered in publish order to a single subscriber. We design your topic schema and key assignment strategy to achieve the ordering guarantees your application requires without sacrificing throughput.

Yes. Our GCP messaging support SLA is 15 minutes for emergency incidents. We cover subscription delivery failures, push endpoint issues, message ordering problems, Dataflow pipeline stalls, and IAM/VPC Service Controls configuration.

We design and implement streaming pipelines using Dataflow (Apache Beam) that consume Pub/Sub messages, apply transformations, and write to BigQuery — including exactly-once semantics, late-data handling, and windowing strategies.

We configure Pub/Sub with least-privilege IAM bindings, VPC Service Controls perimeters for data exfiltration prevention, Customer-Managed Encryption Keys (CMEK), and private connectivity options including Private Service Connect.
