Google Cloud Reviews

We're using Google Cloud as infrastructure for hosting MySQL, but don't use Google's Database as a Service. We manage our database ourselves. 

Google Cloud lacks some tools for database migration. I've only used MySQL and AWS in my career, so those are the only ones I can compare. AWS has a database migration tool that you can integrate with a cloud backup, so can take that backup and restore it in the AWS public cloud, but it's not the same with Google Cloud. We have to use a utility called mysqldump, which takes a long time to restore. That's a big shortcoming of Google Cloud. I don't know why they haven't thought of it.

I've been using Google Cloud Platform for about a year.

We weren't affected during the last major Google Cloud outage. We weren't in the availability zone that was affected. We haven't used it like Infrastructure as a Service. It doesn't provide you a lot unless all your services are in that particular cloud.

I've used all three major public cloud platforms that offer infrastructure as a service. It's hard to compare. If you're a bigger enterprise, it's better to use multiple public clouds so that you are not putting all your eggs in one basket.

For example, you might have an outage in Google Cloud but not in Azure or vice versa. It's the same for AWS. I can't say it won't ever happen, but all three major public clouds haven't gone down at the same time. 

I haven't had any trouble setting up Google Cloud.

I rate Google Cloud seven out of 10. 

Many companies initially consider top providers like AWS and Microsoft Azure, but most choose Google Cloud because of its offered solutions, pricing and local support.

Google Cloud has reduced our operational costs and increased efficiency. For example, deploying production applications traditionally took about a month, but with Google Cloud, it now takes only a day or two. This also extends to monitoring, allowing us to identify and address issues faster than on-premises solutions.

CloudArmor accuracy should be improved. Rules and signatures need to be more refined to detect and process attacks, accuracy of rate-limiting should be improved.

From my point of view, the security features could be improved. 

I've been using this solution for many years. 

I have a monthly subscription for Google storage.

We worked with Google Cloud to ensure HIPAA compliance approval in health insurance companies. At that moment, Azure didn't have those HIPAA compliances. When considering a solution, we have to see which one is compatible with that region and has everything.

I am satisfied with the solution’s technical support. From a learning perspective, I rate the solution's support an eight out of ten. I have gone through its learning, which is good, and become an architect. I have written emails to the support team and always got answers within two to three working days. Whenever I asked them questions, I always got the answers.
