From my understanding they don't dogfood a lot of gcp products internally. That's how you end up with janky integrations between their products. It's really frustrating at times to see their cloud architects pitch some grouping of technologies that you should use to find out the integrations aren't well tested at scale. For example, pushing for pubsub to be used with dataflow for near real time processing just to figure out at scale global pubsub has high latency, above 1 minute sometimes 5 minutes, on 1% of messages at scale.
