It handles database administration tasks so developers can focus on application logic.

Choose this solution when you require managed support for major relational engines within the Google Cloud ecosystem. Be aware that while a free trial offers an 8 vCPU Enterprise Plus instance with 64 GB memory and 100 GB storage for thirty days, ongoing usage starts at $0.0105 per hour after the trial period expires or credits are exhausted.
