Google’s CEO Sundar Pichai claims Google Cloud Platform is
strong enough to compete with Amazon Web Services and Microsoft Azure in the cloud
market. Google Cloud Platform is the third large Cloud Computing Company.
Google is renowned for inventing many cloud computing technologies. Google is
born in the cloud and lives in the cloud, so cloud computing is in their blood.
According to Sundar, 2016 will be the year where Google Cloud Platform rise in
the industry. Google hired Diane Greene, the former CEO of VMware to achieve
this goal.

Google claims that Google Cloud Platform (GCP) is 15% to 41%
cheaper than Amazon Web Services (AWS). Google have made massive price
reduction to fight with Amazon Web Services and Microsoft Azure. Now this is
leading to a price war. Anyway that will be more beneficial from end customer’s
side.
However Google have a strong base in the cloud where they
can give a head to head challenge to the other two leading cloud service
providers i.e. Amazon Web Services and Microsoft Azure
