We wanted to find out which of the most popular database services on two of the biggest cloud provider (AWS and Google), developers preferred to use.
More specifically, we wanted views from enterprises in the region (it’s hard to impossible to find data that’s specific to India.)

For the uninitiated: Cloud SQL is a fully managed database service that makes it easy to set up and manage your relational PostgreSQL, MySQL, and SQL Server databases in the cloud.
It is ideal for: WordPress, backends, game states, CRM tools, MySQL, PostgreSQL, and Microsoft SQL Servers.
Based on real feedback from companies in the APAC region, there are 11 reasons why Google Cloud SQL is better.

The setup was straightforward. Just a couple of clicks, and we were done. My suggestion to anyone thinking about this solution is to jump into it head-first!
