- scarface74 7y agoYes. Technically it happens to all companies but politically it’s a lot different. If you tell your customers that you have an outage because AWS is down, they will shrug and say, things happen. You are in the same boat with a lot of other people, you will no more get blamed for AWS being down than if the whole city lost power. No one ever got fired for choosing AWS. If you’re on Azure, you might get a funny look from people who only know about AWS, but since it is Microsoft Azure you will get a pass. But people will judge you for choosing GCP. Any little thing that goes wrong, they will be questioning why you didn’t choose AWS.

- Fellshard 7y agoThe categories of errors - and Google's ability to recognize and respond to those errors in rapid form - has always seemed extraordinarily slow and reticent compared to AWS. It's one of the concerns I'd have when recommending it.
