11:11 Public Cloud vs. Google Cloud Platform

I honestly can't think of any that couldn't be better served by Azure.

For how it helps our team with data storage and connecting to GA4 as a backup option, and the incredibly low cost for us to use it and reliably back up our data, I would highly recommend using this tool for all of your cloud storage needs. It's easy to use and their customer service is always responsive and easy to get a hold of.

• It has a great advantage for inter-team sharing
• For large data, I found it convenient.
• I have seen great structure in reports followed

Incentivized

• Google Cloud Platform provide the autoscale workload when the workload need to scale up or down
• Great pay-as-you-go pricing model and dashboard report of pricing that help user monitor and optimize the cost
• Using simpler than other cloud provider

• Convoluted support systems.
• Obstructive bureaucracy.
• Inflexible support personnel/policies unable to do what it takes to get the job done.

• The Logs Explorer is quite hard to dig into and find logs of interest
• BigQuery transparency for BigLake vs External tables isn't the best
• Google Group management for permissions can get hairy.

I've found it incredibly easy to use since day one of deployment.

Support is completely inflexible in their policies and procedures, turning even the simplest request into a months-long ordeal.

I would select Sungard on the basis of technology foundation and functionality. It gave me an ample amount of features which I could use in a better way. The inter-team communication gets a better structure than the other products. I would use it on the basis of the above mentioned points. This has proven to be a good support for my team.

I feel GCS buckets are pretty interchangeable with Amazon S3 as far as I have typically used them. It just depends on who or your company wants to give money to. I have liked the Google Cloud Platform BigQuery console better than the interface for Snowflake, but that may be due to familiarity and the proportion of time I've used Google Cloud Platform over Snowflake.

• Positive - Inter-department report flow was quick.
• Positive - Defined process gave us a defined to finish our goals.
• Negative - Detailing on each module is less.

• Approx 30% cost savings after moving from on-prem to GCP due to reduced hardware, maintenance of DC support, and energy costs.
• There are much faster release cycles due to CI/CD pipelines with cloud build and scalable infrastructure using GKE. It works very nicely.
• We use BigQuery a lot, and what used to take hours now takes minutes, speeding up business decisions across teams. Clients.
