Re: [google-cloud-sql-discuss] I need some information on Google cloud SQL for my dissertation, could someone help me?

Hi,

1) Yes. As Google Cloud SQL provides remote access to any mysql client you can easily run mysqldump to extract your data. We also provide a Export feature to make this easy.

2) Yes. Cloud SQL is built on MySQL and InnoDB and as they provide ACID transactions, so does Cloud SQL.

2) Yes. Google Cloud SQL can be easily configured with the Developers Console.

3) I'm not sure what you mean by "accessible stand-alone". You can connect to Cloud SQL from any MySQL client over the public internet (subject to access control specified by the user).

4) Yes. You can specify a region. Currently the Options are "US Central", "European Union" and "Asia".

5) Yes. You can see the security compliance met by Google Cloud Platform at https://cloud.google.com/security/compliance.

Yours,

David

Hi, I am doing a thesis on the subject of the database as a service in the cloud, and I'm analyzing the major vendors that offer a relational database in the cloud. Among these there is Google cloud SQL, and I need some information for my thesis:

1) portability: the database is easily exportable, so save all your data in case you want to terminate the relationship with the cloud provider?

2) transactional capabilities :Google cloud SQL offers the guarantee that transactions meet the ACID properties?

2) Configurability and ability to tune databases: Google cloud SQL can be easily configurable by the user?

3) the database is accessible stand-alone?

4) you can specify the area where data is stored? (for example, region or data center)

5) Google cloud SQL possesses some kind of certification or accreditation/quality assurance?

Thanks for the help
