Google LogoGoogle has many things that it has created for Internet users and they have quickly become one of the top search engines to use. This week they are expanding their services even more by debuting their new hosted storage services.

Google is hoping that the online storage subscription-based service will be ready for release early next year. The service will reportedly include a limited amount of free storage with extra space available for an undisclosed price.

Because of the increase mobility of end users and the speed proliferation of storing digital photos, video, and music is what will bring many businesses and home users to use Google’s fixed fee based online storage system. It can keep up with all storage needs without having to worry about hard drives with limited space.

Freedom to access personal storage files from any device or PC is another attraction of online storage. Armed with only a Web browser and password, users can quickly upload, share or see their files (which will reside on Google’s servers) via a high-speed Internet connection. In particular, students and campuses have lauded the cost-effective data storage option.

Despite its vast resources, Google is a late entrant into the hosted-storage arena, observers noted. Microsoft Corp. in August announced its free 500MB online storage service dubbed Windows Live Skydrive. Another Google rival, Amazon.com, last month guaranteed 99.9% uptime for its year-old S3 online storage offering, while Facebook in September unveiled its open Data Store API program.

Even EMC Corp. has driven a stake into the hosted-storage landscape with its October agreement to buy start-up Berkeley Data Systems Inc. and its popular Mozy online backup business for $76 million. Gogle has already started adding extra storage for users of its Gmail Web-based e-mail service, which has been burning up capacity because of large digital files being stored such as photos and attachments.
