What is Cloud Storage?
Highly available and easy-to-use object storage
- Simple: consistent API, low latency and speed between storage classes make development and use simple.
- Reliable: Geo-redundant storage provides 99.99% availability with transparent failover.
- Economical: cold storage from $0.0012. USA per GB per month. The same is available with georedundant parameters.
- Secure: Data is encrypted both at rest and in transit. WORM compatible options and integration with KMS and IAM.
Key terms:
- Location
The region or regions where the bucket is located and its objects are stored. - Storage class
Allows you to store and maintain properties with different access frequencies, availability levels and pricing profiles. - Object
Part of the data. Identified by the name of the object. - Bucket
Container for objects. Identified by bucket name

Archive
A new class of data storage designed to replace tape storage
Replace your local tape archives with the new Archive Cloud Storage class.
Starting at $0.0012 USD per GB per month in regional locations.
Persistent Disk
Persistent Disk is durable and high-performance block storage for the Google Cloud platform.
Persistent Disk provides SSD and HDD storage that can be attached to instances running Google Compute Engine or Google Kubernetes Engine.
Storage volumes can be transparently resized, quickly backed up, and support concurrent readers.
One disk for maximum virtual machine performance—no partitioning required.

Common use cases
The New York Times uses Google Cloud Storage
The New York Times uses Google Cloud Storage to digitize its archive of photos, videos, articles and more. Thereby ensuring fast and safe access of journalists to the necessary information.

Content storage and delivery

Cloud Storage is ideal for low-latency, high-QPS content that serves users across multiple geographies. Easily stream audio or video directly to apps or websites
Computing, analytics, and ML

Co-locate your compute and storage for higher throughput and lower latency. Cloud Storage simplifies execution of analytical workloads.
Backup and archiving

Low cost archive storage with ms latency to access content, geo-redundant parameters and consistent API. Work with leading backup and DR partners to get the most out of Cloud Storage.
