Google Cloud Platform

Google Cloud Platform (known as GCP) is Google’s public cloud offering with a broad range of services including computing, storage, databases, analytics, and AI services. It is one of the largest cloud providers, but as a non-EU service, it comes with GDPR and data sovereignty concerns compared to EU-based providers.
