Although Google Cloud Platform adoption remains well behind that of AWS and Azure, it leads with those spending less than $50K per month (24% for Google Cloud Platform, 20% for Azure and 19% for AWS). This aligns with respondents experimenting with it (previously noted at 17% for Google Cloud Platform, 9% for Azure and 8% for AWS).
