1) Cloud Cost Reduction Firm Compares AWS, Google Cloud Pricing
By David Ramel

ParkMyCloud, a company specializing in cloud cost reduction services for its customers, published a post that compares pricing for Amazon Web Services (AWS) and Google Cloud Platform (GCP) offerings.

Along with pricing comparisons, the company examined terminology and billing differences between the two platforms. The post is a rewrite/update of a 2017 post, including cloud pricing data as of this month.

The post examines areas such as "AWS Reserved Instances vs GCP Committed Use" and "AWS vs. GCP Compute Sizing," but makes no firm conclusions in favor of either platform.

"Quilt is a versioned data portal for AWS," the site says. "open.quiltdata.com offers access to the world's public data in S3, including Amazon's Registry of Open Data."
