Your reasoning and the conclusion resonates a lot with my own findings for a project that we tried to bootstrap. GCP's GKE and Istio integration are becoming more compelling to consider them for containerized workloads. EKS isn't quite there. One of the things we are struggling with is finding a qualified partner who can help us build our new project on GCP. We don't have a mature infrastructure team and while we try to bootstrap one, we would like to rely on partners to help us move the needle. Even partners in GCP premier list don't have case studies of migrating monoliths to GCP. Most of them talk about GSuite migration which isn't quite the same. AWS wins this battle. They have far more mature partners with better track record and thought leadership. I wonder if you see this the same way. Maybe partnership is not crucial for you? Some insights from the community would help.
