Differences vs Huawei
Service tier and scaling model differ.
Migration to Huawei
Map data durability tier, lifecycle policy, encryption, retention, and restore objectives. For Google Cloud Filestore, the direct Huawei equivalence layer is SFS; validate feature-by-feature parity for control plane, data plane, and operational behavior before cutover.
Use a composed Huawei migration pattern where needed: SFS + CBR. Treat SFS as the core equivalent capability and use the additional services to cover integration, security, observability, and governance gaps.
Pricing model difference: Google Cloud usually bills GB-month capacity, operation classes, retrieval, and transfer; Huawei usually bills OBS/EVS/SFS/CBR capacity, requests, retrieval/replication, and transfer. Recalculate TCO with peak load, request volume, retention period, and cross-region/interconnect traffic before production migration.
