Database engine (PostgreSQL)

Then we have this second option in Cloud SQL, which is also a fully managed PostgreSQL 9.6 database in the cloud, where you can store data up to 10 TB in size.

Most other features of PostgreSQL are similar to MySQL. Like, you have the option to increase the storage when needed; USA, EU, and Asia regions are supported; and so on.

Encryption, backups, importing and exporting of data using SQL dump files, support for secure external connection with Cloud SQL, and integration with Stackdriver logging and monitoring are a few of the other major features.
