Apple is proud to claim that billions of devices are used by people around the world.
More and more people use Apple devices translated into humongous user data.
To save the data – which is in iCloud – Apple reportedly depends on the Google server, according to the report with information.
The report states that Apple has around 8 million Terabytes (TB) data currently saving on Google servers.
Previously it was reported that Apple would spend almost $ 300 million for Google Storage services.
This number will be a significant 50% increase in what Apple has spent for storing data in 2020.
That’s how Apple’s data volume on Google’s server is internally Google’s employees have a company code as bigfoot.
The report said that Apple is the biggest client of Google Cloud.
Instead of Apple it does not have its own data center but it depends on third-party storage services.
However, the report said that iCloud apple storage requirements had grown rapidly and the company did not have enough data centers to handle demand.
Apart from Google, the Amazon web service is also used by Apple to store iCloud user data that includes photos, messages among others.
Because Apple’s focus on privacy has been sharp, no third-party storage provider is given a key to decrypt data – which means prominent security with no one can access data.
The report speculates that the increase in the use of Google Cloud Apple suggests increased cloud storage requirements the company has exceeded its ability to develop and operate its own data center needed to handle the data produced.
If Apple depends on Google for data servers and pay a large amount of money, then Google also pays Apple quite a lot to allow search to be part of iOS and iPhone default search engines.
It was reported that Google pays Apple billions of dollars every year to do it.
