AWS vs. Azure vs. Google vs. SoftLayer: Network, Storage and DBaaS
The document compares cloud services from AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, and SoftLayer, focusing on network, storage, and Database as a Service (DBaaS) offerings. It outlines features like archival storage, data transfer options, and pricing structures, alongside a discussion of multi-cloud usage and service management. The document also highlights each vendor's strengths and provides resources for further comparison of cloud services.
