Google Cloud Platform vs. Virtuozzo Application Platform

For how it helps our team with data storage and connecting to GA4 as a backup option, and the incredibly low cost for us to use it and reliably back up our data, I would highly recommend using this tool for all of your cloud storage needs. It's easy to use and their customer service is always responsive and easy to get a hold of.

In case you want a cheaper PaaS that may be available in your country (Brazil, in my case), you may give Jelastic a try. There are some other strong competitors for the PaaS scenario with free versions, but the paid versions are far more expensive.

• SSH is still tricky to use. You have to log in to a gateway and go to an option menu to get logged in. Sometimes it was not available or too slow.
• Some errors are not clear enough. It took some time to understand which files I had to upload to get my custom SSL certificates working.

I've found it incredibly easy to use since day one of deployment.

I feel GCS buckets are pretty interchangeable with Amazon S3 as far as I have typically used them. It just depends on who or your company wants to give money to. I have liked the Google Cloud Platform BigQuery console better than the interface for Snowflake, but that may be due to familiarity and the proportion of time I've used Google Cloud Platform over Snowflake.

The price of Jelastic for the paid version (considering SSL) is better.

• Approx 30% cost savings after moving from on-prem to GCP due to reduced hardware, maintenance of DC support, and energy costs.
• There are much faster release cycles due to CI/CD pipelines with cloud build and scalable infrastructure using GKE. It works very nicely.
• We use BigQuery a lot, and what used to take hours now takes minutes, speeding up business decisions across teams. Clients.

• It has powered my project since its creation. It's a small project but I did not have any problems until now.
