Capabilities and integrations

With the need for general object storage being so ubiquitous among cloud solutions, it's not surprising that there are a very large number of product integrations with Google Cloud Storage. We've already seen some of these integrations in earlier chapters, including App Engine, Cloud Datastore, and Cloud SQL. Some of the other GCP products that integrate with Cloud Storage include the following:

• Cloud Dataflow: Pipeline I/O for reading and writing Cloud Storage objects
• BigQuery: Import/export and query CSV, JSON, and AVRO files directly from Cloud Storage
• Cloud Dataproc: Cloud Storage as an incredibly scalable HDFS backend
• Cloud Functions: Object change triggers
• Cloud Load Balancers: Backend buckets for serving static content
• Cloud Pub/Sub :Publish notifications for object changes
• Cloud CDN :SSL and edge caching for static content in Cloud Storage
• Cloud Dataprep :For sanitizing and formatting Cloud Storage files for further use
• Cloud Logging: Export logs to Cloud Storage...
