Overall Satisfaction with Google Cloud SQL

We use Google Cloud SQL in all web projects to increase security and reliable backup. When any errors in the initial database are interrupted or occurred, the system switches to the replica db version according to the settings already defined for it, so that users can access the site and platform or application DB information. As a SAAS platform, it has excellent monitoring capabilities, multi-platform, high security, and agility in queries, and ultra-fast data analysis and the Google support team is very responsive.

Pros

  • High security and agility in query databases
  • Multi-platform and database recovery capability with just one click
  • Possibility of automatic switch to replica database in failover situations
  • Simple built in migration and connection tools

Cons

  • Many areas, including caching and indexing data, need to be developed

  • The dashboard and monitoring section can have better customization capabilities
  • Maintaining relational databases in the cloud is easier and more efficient
  • Implement automation to manage database provisioning, storage capacity, and other repetitive tasks
