People hear horror stories about Paypal, but it is still massive. I stopped living in fear of everything and decided to adopt stuff that does the job. HN loves to be an echo chamber, especially hating on things. If you only listen to the loud voices, you will end up missing out on things that are actually quite good.

I've used GCP / AppEngine for about a decade now. Built one biz that did $80m gross in its first year. Never even a small threat of being shut down. Recently had a billing issue with GCP and after explaining the problem, they credited me far more than I was even asking for.

I currently have 20k+ servers hitting Cloud Functions (golang) and Cloud SQL 24/7, which is a constant 50 requests/sec... costing me about $100 a month total. It was easy to set up, documentation is well written with clear examples, deployments are all through CI on Github. It just works.

Sorry, but I'm a fan.
