More and more companies start to adopt multi-cloud strategy nowadays. This article provides a category-by-category mapping for cloud products/services from AWS, Azure and GCP(Google Cloud) with reference links pointing directly to these CSP’s product home page.
A few notes before using this mapping list:
- All categories and products/services are in the alphabetical order
- Some products will appear in multiple categories
- We’ll periodically update this list as “the cloud is always moving”
- We’ll also gradually add detailed comparison articles under each category
