Google Cloud Datastore

Google Cloud Datastore (Cloud Datastore) is a highly scalable, fully managed NoSQL database service offered by Google on the Google Cloud Platform.[1] Cloud storage is something that "allows you to save data and files in an off-site location that you access either through the public internet or a dedicated private network connection."[2] This is very cost-effective for businesses since physical files can replaced with cloud storage records.[3] Cloud Datastore is built upon Google's Bigtable and Megastore technology.[4] Google Cloud Datastore allows the user to create databases either in Native or Datastore Mode. Native Mode is designed for mobile and web apps, while Datastore Mode is designed for new server projects.[5]
