hey guys, after some information, currently i am running a db in 2 parts, both in access, a backend and a front end.. obviously backend holds all the data, and the tables are linked into the front end. i been looking at having the backed converted to an SQL server and use a service like Google SQL to host the backend data and have the tables linked into the front end via ODBC connection. the backend is not very big, its approximately 50mb in size and holds a few thousand records, it is used by 4 people during the working day, the main use for having the backend converted and hosted in the cloud is to enable efficient access from home not just the office, as the current COVID-19 times might require an extended work from home. im not sure what specs and what services i need to select through Google Cloud services, i know i will need SQL and a VM Instance. but as to specs and requirements im quite lost... anyhelp or advice would be greatly appreciated.! many thanks in advance. also open to other sources not just google, we are based in Western Australia. so having australian hosted server would be ideal. many thanks in advance.
p.s im not well versed in server stuff. i know a little but not confident to say im competent.
