Farewell EC2-Classic, it’s been swell
This is something Google Cloud should learn from. It doesn't matter if product XX still makes money or fits in your business model. There are people who rely on it. And they'll remember if the vendor kept it running trouble free for years. They'll also remember if it was arbitrarily shut down or the price was suddenly increased by 4x and they had to spend many man hours migrating to another option. (Google maps api?)<p>Then in the future when that same person is responsibly for choosing a vendor for a new project, they'll remember.
