Google also has a trust problem. As in they lose interest in things quickly.

I would only consider them if I need a massive scale of something they are cheaper on, that can quickly be migrated elsewhere.




This is such an overblown talking point.

If you sign a service contract with Google (which you will if you are spending any amount of serious money), then you will have a precisely defined guarantee that they will continue operating GCloud.


I doubt anyone’s service contract stipulates that Google will continue to invest heavily to keep feature parity with AWS and Azure for the next 20 years


Bingo. I’ve had to move a companies entire platform multiple times because of similar issues. I want boring on infrastructure.


AWS has a trust problem - they have no qualms about observing that your product is valuable, cloning it, and leaving their 'customer' in the dust.
