One of the big advantages of Google Cloud platform is "Scalability".
Load balancers: Scale to millions of users seamlessly. No warming up, no tickets, ...
PubSub: You can send the whole Internet 10 times in a day through it. Google does that every day
Big Query: Its equivalent to spinning up a 100+ node cluster in a matter of seconds and it can process data at speeds of GB's of data per sec, I heard couple of use cases where the user was able to process at ~ 50 GB/s
Kubernetes: 1000's of nodes running 100's of thousands of containers.
