Israel's rabbinical courts will be collaborating with Google Cloud on infrastructure, storage, and applications, Google announced Monday.

Israel's 12 rabbinical courts handle with issues of Jewish divorce, property, child custody rights, wills, inheritances, confirmation of Jewish status, and conversion.
The Great Court in Jerusalem serves as an appellate court and falls under the leadership of the Chief Rabbi.

After Google Cloud won a tender to provide cloud services to the Israeli government, the rabbinical courts migrated most of their workloads to Google Cloud, which also had to design a virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI) solution to allow dozens of employees to work from home during the COVID pandemic.

The courts hope to leverage Google Cloud products to help users access the documents they need to navigate court proceedings, such as divorces, as well as use IaaS (infrastructure-as-a-service) products to digitize their operations in the cloud.

In addition, the courts are testing Cloud Identity to help protect organizational data with a variety of multi-factor authentication methods, such as push notifications, Google Authenticator, and phishing-resistant Titan Security Keys.

Google Cloud has opted for WideOps to perform the migration.

Chief Information Officer of the rabbinical courts, Uri Aharonson, said, "We are delighted to work with Google Cloud on the next stage of our digital transformation journey. We are looking forward to this collaboration to develop applications that will make our services faster and more accessible for our Israeli citizens."

Shay Mor, head of the government and public sector division for Google Cloud Israel said, "We are thrilled to start providing services to the Rabbinical Court and improve the lives of Israelis throughout the country."
