How to store images in google cloud?

I started an application where I show my products to my clients and I need to show them the product image, so I started to see how to use google cloud and I read something about filestore but I'm not sure if it's the best solution for me, also I didn't understand the way google charge for that service, in this link explains that 1GB per month it will charge me $0.20 cents, Can someone explain me this?, Is there a better solution for this?,

Thanks in advance.

Cloud Filestore is to create fully managed NFS file servers on Google Cloud Platform (GCP) for use with applications running on Compute Engine virtual machines (VMs) instances or Kubernetes Engine clusters. You can use the Cloud Filestore Editor and Cloud Filestore Viewer roles to grant Cloud Filestore permissions to users.

Cloud Filestore pricing is based on 3 component:

1 - Service tier: Whether your instance uses Standard or Premium tier. 

Standard Tier : $0.000274

offers moderate performance of approximately 120 megabytes (MB) per second read/write throughput. 

Premium Tier : $0.000411

offers increased performance of approximately 240 MB per second read/write throughput.

2 - Instance size: The size of your instance.

The minimum Standard tier instance size is 1 terabyte (TB) and the minimum Premium tier instance size is 2.5 TB. The maximum instance size for either tier is 63.9 TB

3 - Region: The location where your instance is provisioned

Here some Pricing examples.

If you want just to share a file or image as you described, a cloud storage is an easy way to share a bucket.

As part of the Google Cloud Platform Free Tier, Cloud Storage provides resources that are free to use up to specific limits.

Here is a Pricing examples as well.
