Been trying to spin up vm instances all day, had to try every single zone just to get one up. Not only is this incredibly harmful to a technology business dependent on this infra, it wasnt obvious to me what the issue was until I tried creating instances. Nothing says, hey resources are constrained here, try this one. Just about ready to bite the bullet and move to aws.
- pfd1986 8y agoSame here. We have spent 2 days trying to create instances and migrate images just to figure out later they can't start. Right when I convinced our project to get migrated from AWS...
- tigershark 8y agoWhy on earth would you do that, unless you had huge problems on aws?
- Masiosare 8y agoSame question... why would you do that? AWS is super stable most of the time. I have been running k8s over EC2 (not eks) for a year and works like a charm. I've even run experiments using spot instances and it's pretty good (no guarantee there of course).
- pfd1986 8y agoWe did. Our customer had a bucket shared to a role they created, we spent a week back and forth trying to mount such bucket in our instance using fuse. Mounting with gcsfuse took 5 minutes (although no role used, so perhaps an unfair comparison). In general, I found Gcloud a lot easier to work with.
