I'm pretty sure that they had app engine in 2010, I was building a company on it then. Or does it not count as cloud computing?

App Engine team was maybe a 5-10 engineers. It wanted to be the next Heroku, whereas AWS aimed to be the infrastructure for all the world's software.
They did, but I called out GCE because you're not a serious cloud provider without (virtual) machines you can do what you want with.
