Both are subsidiaries of Google, not Alphabet.
Chromecast Android ChromeOS I think Oculus is much more similar to Stadia than something else too. Additionally, all of those platforms you mention du the same thing: chat and share pics.

Thanks. How does one find the complete S1 when it is updated? For example, how can this information be found for Coinbase?

You listed three Google products. Those are not alphabet companies. No one is trying to say Google is smalltime. Rather the point is, “Meta as an entity is comparable to Google, not Alphabet because it’s Units are Interesting”
Under the Google umbrella or alphabet is the same. Just like under Facebook or Meta.
Nobody cares about the exact legal construction of those products. Plenty of people still say FANG, where it's short for Google and not Alphabet.
Nice nitpick, but you obviously mispositioned your initial comment by putting the emphasis on household names and not on the legal structure, which is a strange argument fyi.

All major clouds have better alternatives to Vault. Vault is mostly for really large companies that want to run things like this by themself. There is no need for service discovery in the cloud in general. I have also used Nomad a lot. Maybe it is because we always needed the cutting edge features in general, but in general not very good quality. Core features always worked though. People should use Kubernetes instea…
> There is no need for service discovery in the cloud in general. That's an interesting take! How do you route requests to the right VM/instance whilst VMs go up/down?

> All major clouds have better alternatives to Vault. Debatable. From my experience, all major clours have alternatives to Vault, but not "better" by any stretch of the imagination.

AWS Secrets Manager gives me everything I want, for no effort, and costs rounds-down-to-zero. I cannot begin to imagine what Vault could even offer that would tempt me to switch.
The app instance authenticates using the cloud providers key vault and from here it’s allowed to use a policy claiming tokens granting rights to a specific db role. These tokens are short lived and are automatically renewed.
This is just one case - vault have a lot of useful integrations that let you “float above” any cloud:

I like to keep my concerns separated. That way we can use any cloud as IaaS and keep the platforming part ourselves. Vault is at the heart of achieving something like this.

> They have software economics, not commercial real estate economics. I don't believe this. Snowflake for instance could be profitable if they chose and they have almost no debt. Furthermore their expenses grow logarithmically with their revenue. It doesn't cost much more to have 2 customers as it does to have 1, but the revenue doubles. Their services are an add-on that supplements the revenue from the platform. Its…
No. The bulk of HashiCorp's revenue comes from licensing and support. Professional services is a tiny percentage of their revenue. Preemptively: support subscriptions != consulting services. I don't know if HashiCorp is a good investment or not. I'm not investing. But their economics are not Yelp's or WeWork's.
