> ...and churned out the occasional semi-corn founder who advocates for a gcloud stack... I got the impression that’s the deal with Pivotal. Some ex-Googlers recreated Borg as BOSH (Borg++). Since then they push GCP as their premier public cloud integration despite most customers being in AWS. Their docs on AWS integration blow chunks, and they took their sweet time delivering a (broken) version of PKS for AWS.

I work for Pivotal. Our internal development environments mostly run on GCP, after migrating from AWS. We chose it because (a) it performs much better and (b) Google would give us the time of day, unlike Amazon. As it happens BOSH made that process manageable for most individual teams because of its design. We do however spend significant amounts with Azure and AWS, to test our various systems on this platforms. PKS came to GCP first because the opensource feedstock, CFCR (née Kubo) was co-developed by Pivotal and Google and was first developed on GCP. As for chunk projection, I can put you in touch with relevant teams for feedback -- jchester@pivotal.io.
