They have zero chance of competing with either aws or azure for the enterprise. It goes against their culture entirely.
Unfortunately for them they also burned way too many bridges with technologists as well.
- unethical_ban 8y agoThis doesn't make sense to me. I don't get the allure of AWS, but Azure definitely knows how to hook into Enterprise infrastructure. I don't know what GCP "doesn't have" for the Enterprise.

- notyourday 8y ago> I don't know what GCP "doesn't have" for the Enterprise. Customer service. All the way to the CEO/CTO level, where in event a named customer has a problem and fuming at something, the execs show up at customer's site in person to butter the relationship. Never underestimate how important it is to have a high up person with authority to reassign priorities at a vendor do the executive customer service in order to keep and grow enterprise side healthy.
