    Cons

    "The most vulnerable problem with Google SQL is that while you can customize your access control list, it provides you with a public IP address."
    "When discussing media files, such as images and audio files, stored in Google Cloud, concerns about handling large amounts of data arise."
    "The performance compared to AWS is not as fast, and the technical support could be better as they don't have a dedicated team, but mostly AI handles the support now."
    "The purging of the data could be better."
    "It is hard to do logging with the solution."
    "They could improve documentation and dashboard stability for efficient user experience and database management."

    More Google Cloud SQL cons
