Our startup is using GCP exclusively but after this (we have our domains with them), we're debating wether diversify our infra now or "trust" GCP won't go away anytime soon.
Lol. Run for a other cloud provider. AWS or Azure are serious about their customers.
GCP is part toy, part science experiment. I am expecting it to be discontinued in the near future. I don't know any medium or large business that puts all their eggs in the GCP basket - or if they do they usually have some sort of deal directly with Google.
The only future I see for GCP is if they lean heavily into the "pure IaaS + K8s" position, and compete aggressively on price.
If customers start to run their own equivalent of SageMaker (or whatever BS the Azure equivalent is) on self-managed GCP clusters for a fraction of the price, cloud competition could finally get interesting.
