Cloud Platform

Features

MySQL databases deployed in the cloud without a fuss. Google Cloud Platform provides you with powerful databases that run fast, don’t run out of space and give your application the redundant, reliable storage it needs.

FamiliarFamiliar Infrastructure

Build and deploy for the cloud faster because Cloud SQL offers standard MySQL databases, the most popular open source database in the world. Instances available up to 16GB RAM, 100GB storage.

FamiliarFlexible Charging

Our pay per use option makes it economical to get started. If you're running a lightly or sporadically used database, you'll save money by only paying for the time you access your data. The package option allows you to control your costs for more heavily loaded instances.

SecuritySecurity, Availability, Durability

Your data is replicated in many geographic locations as standard, and failover between them is handled automatically. This means your data is safe and your database is available even in the event of a major failure. We also manage your backups, making it easy for you to restore when needed, including point-in-time recovery. Cloud SQL is ISO/IEC 27001 compliant.

MigrationEasier Migration; No Lock-in

Standard connections and tools such as mysqldump, MySQL Wire Protocol, and JDBC make it easier to migrate onto (or off!) Google Cloud Platform, and avoids lock-in. Create read replicas of your databases that can be internal or external to Google Cloud Platform.

ControlControl

It's easy to manage and access your instances through a web Console or a command-line interface.

ManagedFully managed

No worrying about replication, patch management or database management - we take care of it.

Pricing

Google offers two billing plans for Cloud SQL:

  • For developers with more traffic, we have package plans that offer a discount and help you predict your costs in advance.
  • For developers with lightweight applications, we offer a flexible “per-use” pricing scheme. You pay only for the time you access your data. Get started with a cloud-hosted MySQL database for around $1 per month.
