Google Cloud supports Windows, right? What would be the problem? (Honest question)
- skrebbel 10y agoNone whatsoever, unless they're heavily bought into Azure-specific services. The idea that if you do C# you must be on Azure (or the other way around) has been outdated since Azure started. The first startup I ran tech at hosted C# on Mono in Docker containers on DigitalOcean and had devs on all 3 major OSes.
- brogrammernot 10y agoI'd be surprised if there isn't a decent amount of C# somewhere in the Google ecosystem.
- drewmate 10y agoI'd be interested if anyone knows anything about this. Especially given the recent updates to for running .NET core on Linux/Mac, a company like Google could make great use of C# without needing to shell out for Windows licenses.
