Did they offer services like RDS, S3, SNS, SQS, Autoscaling, Route 53, load balancing... because those are what make AWS so valuable.

SQL and Domain Names was very common even in the 90s. The other concepts hadn't really evolved. Even AWS only had EC2 and S3 in the beginning. I'm just trying to relate and point out that Google decided to self host, rather then depend on someone else - which for a business that exponentialy grows is the best way, even today.
