>Pricing >During the beta period you will be charged only for the Google Cloud Storage storage and network egress consumed by your Docker images. Dammit google, this is not how you price things. Especially when people have been burned by price jumps on your service before. I don't know why i'd bother integrating with a service when I have no idea what the cost will be.
A large part of the issue with pricing on Google App Engine (which is the one that still stings for many people) - was that they were building on a relatively proprietary platform.
The advantage of Docker based compute engines is that your lock-in is a lot lower - providers have to compete on price and features without locking customers in.
Where I work, we're always balancing using new AWS features against how hard it would be to migrate out to another provider or take our solutions on-premises.
