 ## 🐳 Docker x Defang White Paper
 
 And one more thing: bridging local development and cloud deployment just got easier. We’ve published white papers on how Defang extends Docker Compose and GCP workflows to the cloud — using familiar tools at scale. An AWS white paper is coming soon.

+**Introducing Our New Whitepaper: Simple, Secure, and Scalable GCP Deployments from Docker Compose**
+
+We’re excited to share our latest whitepaper, _Defang + GCP: Simple, Secure, and Scalable Deployments from Docker Compose_.

+:::
+
+Deploying to Google Cloud Platform (GCP) doesn’t have to be complicated. Docker Compose made defining local apps simple, and Defang makes cloud deployments just as easy.
+
+With Defang, you can:
+
+- **Deploy to GCP with a single command.** Go from Compose to Cloud Run, Cloud SQL, and more with just `defang compose up --provider=gcp`.
+- **Skip the DevOps overhead.** No need for Terraform, Pulumi, or custom scripts. Defang maps your Compose services to the right GCP resources — compute, storage, networking, and even managed LLMs.
+- **Enjoy built-in security and scalability.** Defang automates GCP best practices, handling service accounts, secret management, HTTPS, auto-scaling, and more.
+- **Integrate with your workflow.** Deploy from your terminal, GitHub Actions, or even natural language prompts in VS Code, Cursor, or Windsurf.
+- **Save costs and avoid surprises.** Choose from affordable, balanced, or high-availability modes with built-in cost estimation coming soon.
+
+Our whitepaper walks through how Defang integrates with GCP, including how it:
+
+✅ Builds your containers using Cloud Build  
+✅ Manages secure deployments via Cloud Run and managed services  
+✅ Supports custom domains, advanced networking, GPUs, LLMs, and more  
+✅ Powers CI/CD pipelines with GitHub Actions and Pulumi
+
+It also highlights how Defang itself deploys real apps like our Ask Defang chatbot using less than 100 lines of Compose on GCP.
+Want to simplify your GCP deployments? Start with Compose, scale with Defang.
