    When most of our stuff is in Google Cloud Platform, it works great to integrate and cross/share data that is all in Google Cloud Platform or BigQuery. It has simplified things from a permissions perspective as well. I'd say it is less appropriate when trying to test something quickly locally, or when half your stuff is in AWS or another provider.

    Oracle Java Cloud is especially appropriate for moderate to complex Java applications. Due to BYOL licensing, it is also works well when you are planning to do dev and test in-house and then deploy it on Oracle Java Cloud. It is not well suited for simple Java applications due to the cost of Oracle Java Cloud. Simple applications don't need the fully managed aspect of Oracle Java Cloud.

    Cons
    Google
    • The UI is so confusing. The console is good, but it is like a maze. There are too many menus and settings, and things do not work as expected. It takes time to get friendly, and it is not friendly for new users.
    • Support experience: Sometimes, you get a great engineer, but other times, it's very difficult to talk with them as they are unable to respond as expected and solve issues late.
    • Region and zone are issues, as not all services are available in all regions, which is lacking when deploying something in the same region or zone.

    • Pricing can certainly be improved as the cost adds up for dev/test environments using the Oracle Java Cloud platform.
    • It is hard to customize Oracle Java Cloud for complex Java applications requiring high bandwidth memory and network requirements.

    Google
    The Google Cloud Platform console is pretty slick for BigQuery especially. I have liked the visibility I get from using that and the way to integrate and see what's in our data lake. The logging console for tracking GKE jobs isn't quite as great, which is why it doesn't get a full 10.

    Google Cloud Platform is release later than Amazon web service, I think that why Google Cloud Platform can learned and optimized the Dashboard and some features that make it easy to use and can be cheaper than amazon web service.

    Return on Investment
    Google
    • It allows us to focus our efforts on other, more important items at hand
    • It gives us an affordable option letting me know it's available to all users, not just the largest scale ones out there
    • The customer service is always helpful and reliable, along with the service itself which lets me focus on my work instead of worrying about the service.

    • Positive impact on ROI by reducing the time to deploy Java applications in the cloud.
    • Positive impact on business objectives by reducing the CapEx needed to hire staff to deploy and then later maintain the Java instances.
