This is a rather naive view. AWS and Azure provide A LOT more than just VMs/containers (EC2) as a service.

Just having Docker won't give you the same that you can get from AWS RDS, S3, Glacier, Redshift, Route 53, etc.

Sure, but you can get similar things from Google Cloud SQL, Google Cloud Storage, Google Cloud Storage (Nearline), BigQuery, and Google Cloud DNS.

So then the question for me is do I want to deal with Google or Amazon? I pick Amazon every time because I'd never want to depend on Google, who hates customer service and sucks at it.

And you forgot sales, which they suck at even worse, and is critical to success in the cloud (to sell to Enterprises).

Not sure how Spotify ended up using GCE instead of any other providers. The downtime story was hilarious.

They don't understand enterprise challenges. They think they do, but are wrong because they think everything's a software problem.
