The competition Google is putting up in this space reminds me of a Ben Horowitz quote from Startup School (paraphrased):

You have to have a 10x better product to beat established competition.

Compute Engine has a long way to go to be 10x better than AWS. For most (including me) it's not just about storage and CPU units, it's things like VPC, SES, IAM, etc.

Their competition looks even less stellar when you see that amazon just dropped their storage prices by 25%
