There is a good article here on how to do this using MapServer and S3, this
may work for Google as well

https://github.com/mapserver/mapserver/wiki/Render-images-straight-out-of-S3-with-the-vsicurl-driver

You can configure MapServer as a WMS server and add the layers to Open
Layers or take the extra step and configure MapCache to generate a tiled
output and caching using your WMS as source
