Nice writeup - I just saved the PDF in my keep for ever PDF repo.
When I contracted at Google at 2013 I loved their infrastructure. For my task I had to run huge Borg jobs and the job submission, monitoring and logging system were very easy to use. I really liked the summary of hardware failures that occurred - hardware really is not very reliable when running at scale.
After not using AppEngine for a few years I have started using it recently for two personal projects. Using AppEngine's logging and scaling features is a tiny bit like using Google's internal infrastructure - makes me a little nostalgic.
