Cloud Native Application Interfaces

What do you mean recently? We've been doing this for about three years, and it was part of declaring Compute Engine as generally available.

As for "limitations", I mean we can't save you if the NIC or ToR fails, but we lose VMs really rarely. Feel free to ping me internally, and I'll point you at our dashboards.

Disclosure: I work on Google Cloud.

In fairness, I could launch EC2 instances as a whole about 10 years ago so the whole of GCP is recent. (Good job on it though, quality is a differentiator)

Agreed! My issue was which word "recently" bound to (GCE or "the universe"). I interpreted it as GCE.

Thanks, yes I know :-) I consider three years to be pretty recent (from the perspective of people managing their own servers.)
