My take as a GCP employee: Amazon has really dominated the startup world, but google cloud seems to really be hitting its stride with big enterprise tech companies.
Between its support for K8s, networking stack/infra, and TPUs/ML support we have a lot of huge well known tech companies knocking down our door.
But none of those things really matter as a differentiator for the average startup, scale up, or small business. So all in all, i’m not surprised the majority of HN engineers just aren’t excited by GCP.
I have no knowledge of Cloud’s long term strategy, but it wouldn’t surprise me if by leaning into its success in big tech, they are neglecting the startup scene in terms of marketing or building out new features.
