Actually it is. I just moved about 35k instances and 6PB in s3, multiple many TB pg instamces from AWS to google. It is not that bad anymore. Containers and fast internet make it easyish

Alex, I'm curious to hear more about this experience. Did you use any physical device (Snowball, etc), or simply a very fast internet connection between the two? What made you move to Google?
