I’m in the middle of a painful migration from AWS to GCP and my advice is definitely stay away from GCP.
The cloud tools do not usually have real parity or interop with other cloud tools as claimed (eg interop with boto or s3), many gcloud utilities have way worse performance and memory issues, the docs are plastered with up-selling ads and, inconsistent service account auth vs IAM-style user auth issues, and on top of all that, there is this risk Google shuts it down.
Even if they don’t shut down GCS or GKE core stuff, there are so many peripheral products like managed big data solutions, Cloud Functions, etc., that seem like _classic_ cases where Google will abruptly shut them down.
