Google Cloud Pub/Sub Reviews & Product Details

I like the scaling of GCP Pub/Sub irrespective of load or number of subscriptions. This helps building Fan-In Fan-Out, exactly-once delivery systems. Another unique selling point is configuration flexibility such as integrating with Google Cloud Storage, Eventarc triggers, schedulers, Cloud Run functions, etc. this solves the wiring bottlenecks between micro services. It guarantees ease of configurability and usability by exposing SDK, CLI commands and APIs, The GCP documentation of implementing the client code is excellent. I use the Pub/Sub everyday at my work. GCP's support for Pub/Sub is top tier because this is one of their highlighted products and it is worth the hype. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Pub/Sub is more focused on Cloud native functionalities. If we think outside of GCP, there is no point in discussing the implementation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The service is entirely managed by Google, eliminating the need for users to provision, manage, or scale infrastructure or clusters. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Pub/Sub gives at-least-once delivery. So messages can come twice, and you must write code to de-duplicate. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Taking my first steps on the cloud was smooth as the interface is intuitive, the documentation is up to date and the tutorials are comprehensive. The cherry on the on top was being able to make mistakes and learn without having to pay as they provided some credits for new members Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I did not find easily an image of an apple virtual machine, but this is a bit too specific Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The best thing i like Cloud Pub-Sub is that it is a fully managed service and eliminates the need for us to manage its infrastructure. It is also self scalable as per throughout being received. It ensure atleast once delivery and is really easy to integrate both from producer and consumer perspectives. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is slightly more expensive than other messages queues such as Apache Kafka. It is not efficient in processing message sizes of more than 10 MB. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like the slick user interface and how easily we can setup , also support for both push and pull feature was great , mostly the push feature where it can just use a rest api we dont need to do any extra code changes in our exisiting sibcriber api Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Mostly the dead lettering part need to improve, and also in high load it can send two different message with same message id , which google need to improve, Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

it can easily receive data from Azure bus service or python or other cloud products Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

it doesnt load all of the heavy messages, you have to refresh multiple times and it's a probability that you will find the message you are looking for Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like how easy pub/sub is to use out of the box, and how well the various google cloud products integrate with both consuming and producing data for Pub/Sub. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It would be nice to be able to have namespaces within a project for topics. currently the namespaces appear to be global which is less ideal for when you have many applications that live in a project Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Easy of implementation and integration with Backend Services Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Limited language support I feel I don't like about google cloud pub/sub Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

High-performant queue with global scope - no need to worry about provisioning, regions, etc. - just create topics/subscriptions and go ahead, it scales automatically. It's a backbone of event-driven applications in GCP. It's the backbone of GCP EventArc. You can natively connect Pub/Sub to trigger Cloud Run and Cloud Functions, as well as to stream directly from Pub/Sub to BigQuery.

For high-volume workloads it worth looking at Pub/Sub lite as way to save money in exchange for more capacity planning. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Great queue in general - simple to understand and use. They started lean and added more functionalities as it went. Pub/Sub Lite can be fiddly though - while it can save you quite a bit of money, it requires careful capacity planning and lacks many built-in integrations (BQ Streaming, Push delivery for Cloud Run/Functions). Again, Pub/Sub Lite is a potential money saver but not a drop-in replacement for regular pub/sub Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
