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)

What do you like best about Google Cloud Storage?

It's simple to use, I like the fact that the gs:// uri can be used across the platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Google Cloud Storage?

Now that Keras is part of the TensorFlow project, there should be integration so that data can be automatically imported into Keras directly from a gs bucket. Last time I checked, we had to actually move the data from GS to the local compute engine instance where I'm running the Keras script which added extra hurdles. GS is also relatievely feature poor- there are not many bells and whistles Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
