I guess you are frustrated but most of it sounds like everywhere else. Also I think you are exaggerating. For sure they are not 10-15 years behind. There are some fine ideas and implementation for instance the Pouch container and p2p distribution system, even by Alibaba. Hyper.sh is chinese, too. OpenResty is nice. PingCAP, the makers of TiDB are chinese, as well.

Well, half the time things went down is because the data center hit capacity and someone exploits something in the console to shut down your workloads, which makes for a bunch of fun.
