Google Cloud Storage supports regional, dual-region, and multi-region buckets. The listed Standard plan is for Iowa (us-central1). The published hourly storage rate is $0.000027397 per GiB-hour; a 730-hour month is approximately $0.02 per GiB-month. The comparison normalizes this to $0.018626 per decimal GB-month, rounded to six decimals. Actual storage charges depend on byte-hours. Class A and Class B operations have different prices; namespace configuration and transfer destination also affect charges. Blank request and egress rates are excluded costs, not free services. Replication, optional services, and taxes are excluded.

What does the score measure?

StorageMetric Score measures the completeness of the displayed pricing record. Storage, region, source, and verification date earn two points each; egress and request rates earn one each. It is not a review of features, privacy, reliability, or value. The dossier score uses the first plan in the ledger.

What is excluded?

Missing rates are unavailable, not free. Confirm retention, retrieval, request classes, network destinations, discounts, and platform requirements directly with the provider before purchase.
