Google Cloud Storage Overview

What is Google Cloud Storage?

Cloud Storage is a managed service for storing unstructured data, like videos and documents. It is most commonly used for data lakes for analytics, storing AI data, or web hosting. With Cloud Storage you can store any amount of data, and retrieve it as often as you like. New customers can use $300 in free credits to try Cloud Storage. All customers get 5 GiB of US regional storage free per month, not charged against your credits. If you’re a consumer or business looking for file sharing, check out Workspace products like Google Drive (https://workspace.google.com/products/drive/). If you’re looking for photo storage, use Google Photos (www.google.com/photos)
