About Google Cloud Storage
Google Cloud Storage is one of the most commonly used solutions to store data in specialized storage classes optimized for your use case. Google Cloud Storage provides a scalable and secure option to store the data created through your Astro pipeline, no matter the format.
Use Case
Storing a variety of data objects, such as raw files ingested from various sources or logging information, is a common reason to combine Astro with Google Cloud Storage. With Astro, you can effortlessly orchestrate pipelines to start once a file lands in the Google Cloud in an asynchronous cost-effective way by using specialized deferrable operators to watch for changes. Thanks to Astro’s support of Airflow 2.4 it’s possible to use dataset-driven scheduling with GCS objects to further optimize your data pipelines.
