"Google Cloud Platform at less than $150 million Annual Recurring Revenue & left at around $4 billion (excluding Google Suite.)"

I suspect he used abbreviations generously since he actually posted this on Twitter and ThreadApp is just merging multiple tweets in an article format to make it easier to read.

I guess "Annual Recurring Revenue". And for me it's a sign that the article is purely from a business person - which likely has a very different view on the state of things than engineers working on the projects.

That's not "speaking google" that's "speaking MBA"
