Has anyone else started investigating Google's cloud offerings as a result of the price drops? We found a few really nice features in their cloud products that will help us out a lot compared to what we have on AWS, and I'm wondering how many others are exploring this.
- tyw 13y ago> We found a few really nice features in their cloud products Such a tease. What cool features did you come across?
- kapilvt 13y agoThere's quite a few.. super fast networks, network based elb (i assume cause it scales up smoothly and instantly), persistent volumes that can be attached to multiple machines at the same time (read only).. etc.
- giulianob 13y agoYes I have always just used dedicated servers but started looking into cloud. It's looking very attractive but if you use a lot of bandwidth it's still much cheaper to go dedicated.
- morenoh149 13y agoI was looking into using google for my next project just out of spite towards amazon. I've used aws only in the past so figured getting familiar with a competitor and giving them some business does some good for the world.
- fizx 13y agoStill missing any of the fleet management stuff that AWS gives you. :/ No replacements for auto-scaling groups, IAM, CloudFormation.
