Given Google's history, is there any good reason to believe this service would still be supported by Google in a few years and not be replaced by yet another new-and-of-course-much-better-than-the-old-one iteration?
- outworlder 8y agoIs this history relevant for the Google Cloud Platform? Or are we still talking about RSS readers?
- tonfa 8y agoAre you referring to a particular GCP feature that got turned down after reaching GA?
- numbsafari 8y agoIt's currently in Beta, which means it will hopefully eventually go GA. As with any product from any company ever, just because it's in beta doesn't mean it necessary ever goes GA. In the case of Google Cloud Platform products, many of them [1] are subject to the deprecation policy [2]. Basically it states that they'll give you one year advance notice of any intent to deprecate those products. This is functionally the exact same policy as that offered by AWS [3].

- paulddraper 8y agoI wasn't aware of Google retracting or abandoning any GCP offerings. Rather, they seem to double down on all of them. I guess you could say this is the replacement for Cloud Storage FUSE [1], but it's not and if it were I don't see the problem with that.
