Looks like an external issue. "The Cloud Networking service (Standard Tier) has lost multiple independent fiber links within us-east1 zone. Vendor has been notified and are currently investigating the issue."
Earlier quoted context omitted.
I don't follow comments like these, should people refrain from criticising giant companies because there are people working at them? I don't understand the purpose of this comment
Complaining about the communication and response time of a company is different from yelling in the direction of some stressed engineer that they are useless and incompetent at everything they do. Sadly you get too much of the latter around the Internet.
To whomever commented something like 'laughs in AWS' (comment was removed before I submitted the comment)... please don't... glass house and all that... but I also share the same glass house as you.. I don't want bad luck ... and it's only a fluke that this happened to google in eu-east1 and not AWS in X region and then you (and I) would be having a time of hell! :/
What's the actual number of 9s for the major cloud services these days? My impression from their PR seems to mismatch the number of outages and issues lately.
For an individual instance, they only promise 90% availability.
In a moment that's likely to be very, very frustrating for a large number of you that have businesses and customers that depend on G cloud, let's try to remember that somewhere there's an engineer or an SRE having a really hard day just trying to fix things. Please, be kind and decent to each other, especially when things are hard.

Downvoters pls link here the yelling you have seen.

now I wouldn't go as far as to say outages are the normal state of thing, but cloud trades high nines for cheap redundancy. a raid for compute, if you will, and as such a single zone deployment is going to have outages.
(and then there's soft layer which has multiple unplanned sev1 per week)
