Google Cloud Storage support is coming to UpdraftPlus!
There are a lot of cloud storage vendors out there. They can’t all survive, long-term. But there’s a few big brand names that you expect to hang around, regardless of what happens to the others. Google is surely among those, and so Google Cloud Storage support has been on our radar for a while. (Not to be confused with the consumer product, Google Drive, which UpdraftPlus has supported for almost 3 years now).
We’re glad to say that our in-house development version of UpdraftPlus Premium now has full support for Google Cloud Storage:
- All operations: uploading, downloading, scanning remote storage, deleting
- Chunked uploading and downloading: no matter how big your site is, UpdraftPlus can upload it a little at a time, and not get thwarted by timeouts.
- A new bucket can be created for you without leaving the UpdraftPlus dashboard
- All storage classes supported (standard, durable reduced availability, nearline)
- All locations supported (including multi-region locations) (EU, America, Asia and the various sub-regions)
All being well, this will be in the next UpdraftPlus Premium release – hopefully next week. It’s feature-complete, with no known bugs, and is now undergoing final testing prior to release.
