 Three main players in the cloud platform market: Google Cloud Platform (GCP), Amazon Web Services (AWS), Microsoft Azure.The competition is heating up , choosing a cloud platform, newcomers may only look at the cost, but many different business needs should be taken care of before making the final choice. In this article, we will shine a light on the competition between the three giants of the cloud:


Google cloud
With increased frequency of cloud outages you need to ensure your data is always available. Using data transfer services you can easily backup data from another cloud storage provider to Google Cloud Storage. You can ensure your data is retained cost-effectively by taking advantage of ultra low-cost, highly-durable and highly available archival storage offered through Google’s Near-line and Cold-line storage classes. Object life-cycle management enables this automatically, transitioning data from one storage class to the next depending on your business’s cost and availability needs at the time.
