Lakehouse

Google Cloud’s Lakehouse platform centers on Apache Iceberg, enabling multi-cloud data management for analytics and AI agent workflows. It handles open-format data storage and processing, targeting enterprise-scale operations that require interoperability across different cloud environments without locking data into proprietary silos.

This setup suits teams already committed to Iceberg standards and needing AI-driven insights from distributed data sources. The main friction point is the complete absence of a free tier. You pay strictly on a pay-as-you-go basis from day one, so there is no sandbox environment to test the architecture before incurring costs.
