Google Cloud Storage vs. NetApp StorageGRID

Cloud Storage is a managed service for storing unstructured data, like videos and documents. It is most commonly used for data lakes for analytics, storing AI data, or web hosting.

All customers get 5 GiB of US regional storage free per month, not charged against your credits.
