Does Cloud storage allow me to work with with other cloud storage services well

Question

Does GCP support Cloud Interoperability? I need to work with Amazon S3 as well with as Cloud Storage. What options does GCP have with regards to this?

Answer 1

Google Cloud Storage provides the feature of Cloud Interoperability.

It has 3 ways of achieving cloud interoperability:

• Using the Storage Transfer Service

Storage Transfer Service enables you to import large amounts of online data into Cloud Storage from Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3) buckets and general HTTP/HTTPS locations. 

Storage Transfer Service can optionally schedule transfers, delete source objects, and select which objects are transferred.

• Using the XML API

The Cloud Storage XML API is interoperable with some cloud storage tools and libraries that work with services such as Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3) and Eucalyptus Systems, Inc.

• Using the gsutil command line

The gsutil tool lets you access Cloud Storage from the command line. It can also be used to access and work with other cloud storage services that use HMAC authentication, like Amazon S3.
