I am surprised to see Evernote moving to GCP to be honest. The cost increase in using GCP vs self-hosted hardly ever make sense for storage providers (which is kind of what Evernote boils down to). And it's not like Evernote is doing well financially.
It's why Dropbox went the opposite direction.

It's the not so subtle cloud "ad hominem" these days. On your second point, per [0], Evernote is interested in Google's ML capabilities. [0] fortune.com/2016/09/13/evernote-google-cloud/
