It would be pretty impressive to launch a public cloud I would trust even less than GCP :D

- arjvik 2y agoGCP got this reputation because it’s a second class citizen within Google. Google’s own internal infra (Borg, Blaze) is top-notch. If Meta can pull off the public cloud correctly, I’d trust them greatly - they’ve shown significant engineering and product competence till now, even if they could use some more consistent and stable UI.
- mathverse 2y agoDont all new projects go to gcp within google?
- Cthulhu_ 2y agoYeah at this stage it doesn't make sense to have two tiers within Google.
- kridsdale1 2y agoDepends on what you mean by new. None of the new features for the mature product I work on have touched it. To the side I have had GCP work but it’s been isolated and as if I were moonlighting.
- nijave 2y agoA lot of Fortune 50 companies compete in some way with Microsoft, Amazon, and Google so are reluctant to use their services. I think Meta has the benefit of less corporate competition Anyway in that context, you don't need trust when you have a sufficiently large legal department
- VirusNewbie 2y agoI doubt there is a single Fortune 50 company that doesn't use one (or more) of the top 3 clouds. I mean, Netflix and Apple even use public clouds quite heavily.
