I see. Curious about the latency between your GCP apps and the database on AWS - is it like 1 ms or 100ms? Does it affect the product?

  About 4ms for us. However, we chose our data centres on both ends very carefully. There are tables online you can find that for those pings, one such is here: https://medium.com/@sachinkagarwal/public-cloud-inter-region-network-latency-as-heat-maps-134e22a5ff19 https://medium.com/@sachinkagarwal/public-cloud-inter-region... However this means we are paying for egress on both sides. This was something we chose to eat due to GCP Kubernetes, but considering today’s changes, it probably no longer makes sense.

    So you decide to eat egress costs in perpetuity, which will scale as you go, but a one time increase of $70 per month is enough to make you go back? What are you even trying to optimize for?

    sheesh, the lengths you guys went to build that monstrosity.
