Seriously, customers don’t care about the internal nuance of how things are organized. They care that a very foundational piece of a cloud service provider will suddenly be not available.
Seriously. Comments like the one to which you responded are absolutely endemic on this site. Like half the people here are incapable of viewing anything as a non-expert.
Aren’t the people that use GCP the voices that you should listen to? The 2-back comment is basically hearsay while the 3-back is from a presumed GCP customer. I also use GCP and this stings a little, but I’ve never otherwise seen a single component in GCP deprecated, which is why I continue to use GCP.
GCP customer here as well and while this does make me a bit wary, I'm not too ruffled yet. I really love their cloud console UI and how they organize things and have been nothing but happy with their cloud services. Hoping it stays that way!
