I love GCP’s postmortems - they’re open, honest, insightful, and I wish I could get my company to OK us releasing details like this when we have outages. It’s part of the reason I personally like GCP more than AWS (and certainly azure, those guys don’t admit to shit regardless how bad the outage is).

Edit: Wow, downvotes because I like transparency from my cloud hoster, super interesting...

You're getting downvotes because this was not a transparent and open report. It was vague and was more advertise-y than postmortem-y.

Not saying Amazon is perfect by any means either, but there's a lot of room for improvement. Good postmortems give everyone ideas on how to solidify their own processes and prevent other issues. This was just fluff.
