This is from 2011. 7 years ago.
It would be nice to see if there was a change at Google since then to orientate itself towards more of a SOA thing like Amazon? I don't know what state Google Cloud Platform was back in 2011 - I am guessing it is significantly more now than it was then, so would be curious to know if that has stemmed from a "transformation" internally, or if they just started from scratch for GCP?
- jchw 8y agoI'm a newer employee, so I can't add color to the past several years of work, but my immediate reaction is Yes. Given the "We <3 APIs" slogan you can see around the MP campus (from public view of course) it's pretty apparent that there was a top down push towards improving the state of SOA and building platforms. Whether that applies to non-Cloud Google I don't know. But I don't even think GCE existed in 2011. A lot has changed.
