Gcsfuse: A user-space file system for interacting with Google Cloud Storage
It uses FUSE and there's three types of Kernel cache you could use with FUSE (although, it seems like gcsfuse is exposing only one):
1. Cache of file attributes in the Kernel (this is controlled by "stat-cache-ttl" value - https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/gcsfuse/blob/7dc5c7ff...)

Does Cloud file store have life cycle management feature ?
You're looking at Filestore because your software can only write to a mounted file system? If so, you could mount a Google Cloud Storage bucket with Fuse. I haven't used Fuse myself in production, but it may be worth trying out for your workload.

Google Cloud Storage FUSE
Is this the same gcsfuse that's been around for years, only now with official Google support?

RANT: MICROSOFT'S INABILITY TO SUPPORT THEIR OWN HARDWARE IS GOING TO KILL ME
I'm pretty sure the storage for a stopped VM vs a disk image will be the same. Cheaper if you can store your data in GCS bucket? Take a look at GCS-Fuse to mount storage buckets into a VM.

Obsidian didn't sync my files on Debian, any help?
I fixed the problem, it was due to the incorrect setup of the google drive. I followed this guide to set everything up from scratch and create the folder directly in Linux instead of constantly accessing the apparently "encrypted" cloud. If anyone ever runs into the same problem, I really hope this thread is helpful :D

What is a good cloud option to sync across Windows and Ubuntu OS's?
Its a little hacky, but google drive with mounted ocaml-fuse kinda does-ish this... though git/GitHub does the trick, too.

How to mount Google Drive in a safe way? Open source apps available?
There are fuse drivers like https://github.com/astrada/google-drive-ocamlfuse but I pretty darned sure it's using exactly the same transport protocol as Google's own app.
- Is it possible to automate backup to google drive or similar?
- How do you get google drive working on Ubuntu WITHOUT SNAPD!

what app do you use for ..
you might be able to load a drive with locally with google-drive-ocamlfuse but you wouldn't get access to google drives proprietary files (google doc, sheet, slide, etc)

10 years since Google said to “hang tight” about Linux support for Google Drive
There's always the excellent unofficial google-drive-ocamlfuse which uses FUSE to mount Google drive to a local directory.

Cloud Backup apps
Agree with previous comment, dejadup is a good option for local backups, but there isnt a really good backup cloud tool in linux enviroment: https://github.com/vitalif/grive2, https://github.com/astrada/google-drive-ocamlfuse, etc.
