Google Cloud Storage on CloudSonic

Store media and backups off-server on Google Cloud Storage without changing a single plugin or configuration

TL;DR Google Cloud Storage

CloudSonic supports Google Cloud Storage as an S3 compatible object storage provider for media offload and backups, completely separate from your server.

Google Cloud Storage is one of four S3 compatible object storage providers available on CloudSonic. It is well suited for applications already running within the Google Cloud ecosystem, with competitive pricing for storage and global availability across Google's network. Because it implements the S3 compatible API, any tool or plugin built for Amazon S3 works with Google Cloud Storage using only different credentials and an endpoint URL.
