FWIW, I find the AWS UI much better than the GCP interface. AWS feels much faster to navigate, even though GCP has an SPA-like design, like its other B2B tools.

- DevOpsy 6y agoYou know I have to agree with you that AWS UI is more responsive, the UI in GCP is a bit heavy on the JS and sometimes can make the CPU spin. However due to all the reasons stated in the article, I would take that downside any day, twice.
- londons_explore 6y agoSince all of GCP is available with an API, I'm surprised there aren't third party dashboards. I'd happily pay a percent or two of my bill for an intuitive dashboard at a glance. Especially one that kinda fills the gap between monitoring, alerting, debugging, and manipulating resources.
- user5994461 6y agoWhat you're looking for is datadog. A metrics/monitoring/alerting/debugging/dashboard solution. https://www.datadoghq.com/ https://www.datadoghq.com/. Try a google image search and you will see some examples. There are lots of menus and visualization so you obviously want to try the tool for yourself.
- 0xy 6y agoI was once the recipient of a sales pitch for some GCP Apigee products and during the demonstration the control panel glitched at least three different times with loading screens of death and was very slow. That kind of stuff sticks with you and you know that during an emergency or outage you're going to be battling the UI as well as the underlying problem. Needless to say we didn't proceed. AWS might feel a little 2010, but at least I know the control panel is responsive and works. No fluff.
