That feeling when you open https://console.cloud.google.com and see that you don't have your Kubernetes clusters and CloudSQL databases, but CTA to create first.

To clarify something: this outage doesn’t appear to be global, but it is hitting us particularly hard in parts of the US. So for the folks with working VMs in Mumbai, you’re not crazy. But for everyone with sadness in us-central1, the team is on it.
It seems global to me. This is really strange compared to AWS. I don't remember an outage there (other than s3) impacting instances or networking globally.
GCP status page is worthless as it's always happy and green when production systems are down and then they might acknowledge something an hour later
Anyone using both AWS and GCP that can form an opinion on availability of both? As a GCP customer I am not very happy with theirs.
I use both services heavily at work. The networking in GCP is terrible. We experience minor service degradation multiple times a month due to networking issues in GCP (elevated latency, errors talking to the DB, etc). We've even had cases where there was packet corruption at the bare metal layer, so we ended up storing a bunch of garbage data in our caches / databases. Also, the networking is less understandable on G…
I'd love to know how this happens in the modern world. I've seen it myself only once (not GCP, but our own network with cisco equipment.)
Is something in the chain not checking the packet's CRC?
