In 2019 Google has started to roll out it's new storage platform - Google One. It results in increased backup duration, data privacy weakness or additional administrators’ effort - they have to, at least, encrypt data before sending to an external cloud. Remember, it is a personal data storage service. It means that excessive load is on the Google server. You can know it from the following error message - 'Please, reduce your request rate'. No buckets that preserve all your project data, no management of object metadata, no setting of object and bucket ACLs. It doesn’t support advanced data management features.Google preserves Google Cloud Storage but not Google Drive as an enterprise platform, so you will not get a solid business application with Google Drive data storage. Using Google Drive you can choose just a standard storage plan offering no extra flexibility. No tier-based data storage (cheap and slow for long-term data storage, more expensive and fast for “hot” data).You may find actual price info on the Google Drive pricing page.Īlthough the service is quite handy for home users and has the same SLA base as Google Cloud Storage (99.9%), it doesn’t provide for any business-ready features: Similar to Amazon Drive or Microsoft OneDrive, it offers free and fee-based storage plans - you start with 15 GB of cloud space for free, but then you can upgrade your storage space up to 100 GB for $1.99/month, 1 TB for $9.99/month or 10 TB for $99.99/month. It is a popular cloud storage service by Google distinguished by the deep integration of Google apps. Click this link to check the list of supported solutions.
