Google Cloud Shell is an online bash shell based on Debian.[1][2][3] The free tier (included with all Gmail accounts) includes 8 gigabytes of random-access memory and a persistent 5 gigabyte home directory. Except for the home and root directories, the Cloud Shell environment is volatile [clarification needed].

Google Cloud Shell supports OpenSSH for secure remote access and integrates seamlessly with the Google Cloud Command-Line Interface (CLI) for managing cloud resources. Additionally, it features a code editor based on Eclipse Theia, making it a versatile tool for developers and system administrators.[4]
