Google Cloud Storage Nearline Valuable Features

The most valuable features of Google Cloud Storage Nearline are:

  • The APIs, which are great. The solution has APIs for almost everything that we could possibly need for our file storage system.
  • The SDKs are also well-supported with SDK documentation.
  • The ease of reporting.
  • The protection it provides us. It can isolate files and stop them from corrupting other files. There is a security mechanism that encrypts the files and all IPs when sharing with a third party. This ensures that no one will see the content of our files.
  • Strong policies with respect to configuration and location. We can create buckets in each of our locations for storage. For example, if a file is generated in the US it should be stored in the US, and the same for files generated in Europe or Asia.

The ease and convenience that Google Cloud Storage Nearline provides is noticeable. It effectively addresses the issue of data accessibility, ensuring that whenever I require data, it's readily available without complications. There are occasions when data flow experiences fluctuations, with periods of increased data input. I need to stay responsive to these fluctuations, such as during spikes in data volume. Google Cloud Storage Nearline proves particularly advantageous in such scenarios, as it adapts seamlessly to accommodate spikes, ensuring that data accessibility remains smooth. It provides the necessary support and flexibility to manage data storage effectively, especially during times of variable data flow.

The capacity and space on offer are excellent.

It's easy to use. All services in the cloud are easy to use as you have a service account. You can manage the security very well, however, that is the same in all cloud network services.

The cloud setup is easy for experienced individuals.

The solution is stable and reliable.

The most valuable feature of Nearline is the access. It's helpful to move data that is generated once a month, such as salary information, to Nearline. After that, you can move it to a cloud core line or archive. This feature is very helpful for once-a-month access.

The solution offers quite good monitoring.

We didn't face any downtime last year using the solution. This was very helpful.

Google is always introducing new features and tends to have a new release every month.
