We've been running it for about a year to power Quizlet - overall things have been good and we're happy. AWS and GCP are complicated enough that they're tough to compare holistically, but on most of the things we care about we find GCP to be equivalent or better (sometimes significantly) than AWS. It really does have better networking and disk technology, and the pricing is much better. Here's the analysis we did: https://quizlet.com/blog/whats-the-best-cloud-probably-gcp.

Rough patches are:

- Live migration is sometimes not seamless.

- Pub/sub is missing some core features.

Can I ask what the Pub/sub features you miss are?
Mainly Pub/Sub does not let a single subscription subscribe to multiple topics
