Google unveils surprise restructuring under Alphabet
The idea behind this massive reorganization is to keep Google focused on what it does best and not become overburdened with the many acquisitions that company has completed in the last few years. To do this, Larry Page and Sergey Brin have created Alphabet, a single organization that oversees all of the smaller organizations that now contains Google too.
According to the SEC, Google will retain search, ads, maps, the Google Play Store, YouTube and Android but other companies like, the recently acquired Boston Dynamics, will not be under Pichai.
Larry and Sergey note that they are in the business of creating 'things' and that they will oversee and control the budgets of each company under the Alphabet organization and with Google now under the control of Pichai, this frees them up to work on other projects.
There is a massive change to Google's organizational structure, and likely warranted too, as the company has grown to be a massive entity. By breaking up the components into smaller operational bits, it should allow for each group to be more focused on their own specific goals.

I somewhat can see what the plan is moving forward, still same old google essentially rather focusing on other divisions of the business more efficiently. really like the move by them, to me it makes sense.
