Its not their core business. Google constantly exits businesses unless they explode in profitability. As someone who currently uses AWS, it would take an act of god for me to move over to Google Cloud, even if the tools were better and even with the cost of some services (nearline storage) cheaper than AWS.<p>I&#x27;m not just paying for a service. I&#x27;m paying because I know AWS is in it for the long haul.<p>This is great for Spotify, just as AWS was great for Netflix (considering both services are terrible at representing true workloads; they&#x27;re both just control planes serving static content, videos or music). I don&#x27;t see it dragging a ton of business into Google, just making their acquisitions easier for people who decide to start on GCP or migrate in.<p>Just my two cents.
