Which cloud services are most 'trustworthy'?
For personal use, whose cloud services do you use and trust the most, and why? What do you use them for?
- zunzun 8y agoI use a Google Compute Engine (GCE) 4-core "high cpu" unit for my personal hobby curve and surface fitting web site zunzun.com - the site requires large, irregular bursts of CPU for user calculations, mostly scipy and matplotlib. For this purpose I would rate them a 5 out of 4 stars.
- verdverm 8y ago5/4 stars, that's great
- verdverm 8y agoGCP all the way. Best dev experience, efficiency of resources, and capabilities in simplicity of any cloud. I ran a single node GKE for a while until I graduated to needing something bigger. Now I run a heterogeneous set of node pools with almost no management required. I regularly help others migrate to GCP/GKE. I also trust the Google developers to produce better, more secure systems than the other clouds. Google has also given a ton back to the dev community and more. Check out Search Inside Yourself or Inside the Plex for good reads. I use GCP for https://hofstadter.io https://hofstadter.io
- ioddly 8y agoFor VPS, I'm very happy with DigitalOcean and Vultr both. DO also has some managed services now (hosted dbs in preview, spaces etc). I use these for hosting personal projects and backups via Syncthing. If you want more managed cloud stuff, serverless etc I'm alright with both AWS and GCP. AWS has more stuff overall, GCP's interface is much much nicer especially for a solo developer. I use AWS for work and some personal experiments, GCP for some personal experiments only.
- Avalaxy 8y agoDefinitely Azure or AWS. Why anyone would choice GCE over them when it comes to trust is beyond me.
