I see there are two available libraries. I am wondering what are the differences? Are they both officially maintained by Google?

Google Cloud lets you choose the best environment to run your Node. js applications, with options for serverless, Kubernetes, VMs, or custom hardware.
Google Cloud APIs are programmatic interfaces to Google Cloud Platform services. They are a key part of Google Cloud Platform, allowing you to easily add the power of everything from computing to networking to storage to machine-learning-based data analysis to your applications.
Yes both are maintained by Google. googleapis covers all these APIs (drive, calendar, admin sdk, maps, etc) whereas google-cloud covers the cloud platform stuff like bigquery, datastore, cloud storage, bigtable, pub/sub, etc. There appears to be overlap and I don't know which one is better for a particular service. Will be playing with cloud storage and admin sdk here soon though :)
