Disclaimer: I work at GCP, and used to work at AWS, so I've actually seen this save customers $millions
- dclusin 11y agoThe leased line provider will also charge you for bandwidth too. But probably overall cheaper. And you get QOS guarantees too.
- milesward 11y agoNot if you use Direct Peering from Google :D https://cloud.google.com/interconnect/direct-peering https://cloud.google.com/interconnect/direct-peering Disclaimer: I work at GCP, so I know you can only get a few TB/s this way, which might be a bottleneck. YMMV

- boulos 11y agoOr even easier (come on Miles!), use CDN Interconnect via Fastly, CloudFlare, etc.: https://cloud.google.com/interconnect/cdn-interconnect https://cloud.google.com/interconnect/cdn-interconnect Disclosure: I work on Compute Engine.
- matt_wulfeck 11y agoAny blog posts you have links for describing how this architecture looks?
- milesward 11y agoAWS---[DX---GCI/DP]---GCP It's sorta like that. Disclaimer: I work at GCP, so feedback on how you'd like to see a more detailed version might actually have an effect!
- matt_wulfeck 11y agoI'm curious about what things look like from a management point of view. It would be great if I could go from gcp and AWS directly and not through and intermediary.
