By Navneet Joneja, Product Manager, 1. Network Serve the request from as close to the user as possible
Optimize the network routing between the end-user and the service, including avoiding pockets of network congestion and minimizing the number of network hops between the user and the service.
2. Storage Google Cloud Storage is built on Google’s proprietary network and datacenter technology. We’ve spent more than a decade building out proprietary infrastructure and technology to power Google’s sites (after all, we believe that fast is better than slow ). When you use Google Cloud Storage, the same network goes to work for your data.
We replicate data to multiple data centers and serve an end-user’s request from the nearest data center that holds a copy of the data. We also offer a choice of regions (currently U.S. and Europe) to allow you to keep your data close to where it’s most needed. We then take this one step further. When you upload an object and mark it as cacheable (by setting the standard HTTP Cache-Control header), we automatically figure out how best to serve it using Google’s broad network footprint, including caching it closer to the end-user if possible.
Finally, you don’t need to worry about optimizing your storage layout (like you would on a physical disk), or the lookups (i.e. directory and naming structure) like you would on most file systems and some other storage services. We take care of all the "file system" optimizations behind the scenes.
Google Cloud Storage , we do all the background work to make it fast so that you can focus on your application.Navneet Joneja loves being at the forefront of the next generation of simple and reliable software infrastructure, the foundation on which next-generation technology is being built. When not working, he can usually be found dreaming up new ways to entertain his intensely curious almost-two-year-old. Ville Aikas likes to work on tools and services that make developers lives easier and "just work". When not busy cranking out code, he loves to play soccer with his kids, build robots and watch F1.

stop bla bla bla things. just give us google drive.
ReplyDeleteI just don't understand why Google's storage service is taking so long to launch. Maybe Google is not anymore the agile enterprise we once knew.

ReplyDeleteYes. Give us Google drive before it's too late and no one cares anymore.
ReplyDeleteDropbox, Isync and the like will rule.
Google always work this way :)
DeleteLet people waiting and survey their reaction when they announce features, etc ...
Let's wait, people satisfy with dropbox atm
A google drive will enable everybody to work "the old way", but with Google Cloud Storage developers can make systems "a new way" and eliminate the need for a google drive.
