I'd consider Google Cloud because the documentation, tutorials and verbose config (on most services) on AWS are a fairly substantial barrier. Has you ever gone through trying to wire up a Lambda function to talk to a S3 bucket and API getway endpoint? It's not fun.
Strongly agree. I think that using an orchestration tool like Ansible or Cloud Formation is basically essential for AWS, because so many of the services have these interdependencies.

Yeah, we tried it. Not a great experience, and using an AWS proprietary container hosting system when everyone else is standardising on Kubernetes is not remotely attractive. I'm really looking forward to trying App Engine Flexible and GKE. If we can get really good application container hosting from GCP, then that will be a strong pull to migrating whole stacks.
