Which one is better google storage for developers or the amazon s3?

Hello,

I am a web designer and got activated for Google storage. Both services are almost same although Google is still in beta mode.

In Google you can get unrestrained storage to creat buckets in google cloud and your data can be accessible by API also you can create public files (classic CDN) and you can administer your account using webapp called Storage Manager.

Google Storage supports chunked encoding and resumable uploads. Which is important when one do streaming.

However, Amazon consumer has more choices area-wise, whereas, google storage hold up US & EU only at the moment.

Google Storage lacks explicit regional control like S3 as CDN-like capabilities (caching and replication across edge servers) are enabled for all public objects by default.

Also, Amazon has tie up with other services such as CloudFront and EC2. GoogleStorage is more an individual service although it may be collocated with AppEngine. Amazon do not charge anything for accessing its file storage from its cloud processing, so using S3 from EC2 is a free and zero cost operation, unlike Google where App Engined accessing Storage for Developers is charged and likewise Rackspace Cloud Server accessing Cloud Files is also charged.

See you.
