For those who are wondering, I work for Pivotal. We are also a major partner of Microsoft. We've also been on AWS, spending a shit ton of money, for a long time. And as whelmingness goes, my personal experience with AWS has remained squarely in the "under-" camp. I am not an executive, or director, or anyone with any political or financial pull. I am a plain engineer. Yet Google folk came to our aid, quickly, when we needed it, without needing to stump up buckets of cash or wait for someone somewhere to take our ticket.
