Google Cloud Storage

Overview

iCloud from Apple is a secure cloud storage solution for storing multiple types of content online, and across all your devices. The data storage platform provides a single place to store your documents, music, photos and other files. It eliminates the need for uploads, downloads and transfers.

Cloud Storage by Google helps businesses store, organize, and analyze various documents, audio and video files, images, and other data in a centralized repository. It includes buckets, which lets users create storage spaces by geographic location or region and define bandwidth and access rights.
