HN comment space was not sufficient enough for me to write about the ways AWS drives me insane. So, here is my blog on 1000 cuts by AWS: https://medium.com/google-cloud/the-future-of-cloud-computin.... I feel Google cloud is much better engineered, focusing on developer happiness and productivity.
Talking specifically about my field, Cloud, Big Data and DataScience, its so painful to build a decent data stack that can handle few terabytes of data, let alone petabytes of data. Google Cloud (Pub/Sub, Dataflow & Big Query) make it a breeze to handle petabytes of data. You can literally debug a petabyte scale pipeline, while its running. Unified logs, metrics, monitoring, alerting is another feature that shows how well the Google Cloud platform is built with developer in mind.
