Echoing this. The SRE book is also highly revealing about how Google request prioritization works. https://sre.google/sre-book/load-balancing-datacenter/ https://sre.google/sre-book/load-balancing-datacenter/ My personal opinion is that Google's resources are more tightly optimized than AWS and they may try to find the 99% best allocation versus the 95% best allocation on AWS.. and this leads to more rejected requests. Open to being wrong on this.
