On: Google Cloud SQL for Postgres

[DonkeyChan]

I'm not building anything on top of google unless they give EOL time lines and stop pulling the rug out from under services.

They haven't really pulled the rug out for anything on Google Cloud (there've been a few things replaced, e.g., the old Master/Slave datastore on App Engine.)

And while this doesn't have an deprecation policy applicable as a Beta feature, most GA Google Cloud features have a one-year deprecation policy, so even if they were retired, no one would have the rug pulled out.)

They do have a one-year deprecation policy[1] for pretty much all of their GA offerings on GCP[2].

You seem to be confusing Google Cloud Platform with Google services. AFAIK there have been no GCP features removed after they have gone into General Availability.

Bet hey, keep the uninformed meme going if you like.

You can find our deprecation policy here:

Disclaimer: I work on GCP, though not on Cloud SQL.

What exactly has gone away from GCP unexpectedly?

[menacingly → DonkeyChan]

Strongly agree. My perception is that they've got no grit, which stinks because Amazon has it in spades

[emodendroket → menacingly]

Can we all stop going on about "grit" yet?
