I tried using google cloud (switching from AWS) a few months ago and it was the worst user experience I've ever had trying to use any software / dev environment. The UI was far worse than windows 98, and horribly confusing. And I got the impression you can only run standard tensorflow libraries, without any modification. I needed to run a modified version of tensorflow so it was a massive waste of time. I couldn't believe how much better AWS is for running TensorFlow models than Google Cloud.

Are you talking about the Cloud ML service that was in private Alpha? Would love to hear if your opinion has changed now that it's Beta. Alpha products tend to have rough edges all around. (work at GCP)

  Speaking of... where are GCP GPU instances, without Cloud ML?

  Is it possible to run customized (ie, recompiled, with new C code embedded) TensorFlow instances in it now? without that there's no point in looking. Thanks for replying.
