Disclosure: Former Googler<p>I didn't think I would laugh that hard coming in here and reading these comments, but here we are. I can virtually guarantee that the following things are not the root of the problem:<p>* Lack of compute/networking/storage<p>* Incompetence of employees<p>* Back to school traffic spikes<p>* Just about anything else here<p>My $0.02. these are almost always due to bad roll outs, usually configuration changes. But I've been wrong countless times before!
It sure feels like there have been quite a few big outages this summer (Google in particular). I wonder if they are getting sloppy or this is just bad luck?
I like the majority of GCP products I work with, but judging by the amount of issues in the past year, GCP feels amateurish compared to AWS, which we continue to user in order to host most mission critical operations.<p>I cant access any of my Airflow clusters atm. :/
Login from incognito works for me so I assumed one of my extensions was causing an issue somehow and started disabling them. I'm sorry I doubted you, extensions.

Googler not on Cloud team, but using Google Cloud Platform for an internal project. I've encountered my share of bugs and other flaws while using this platform. I think all these platforms are just too damn complex and brittle. It's easy for even a smart SWE or SRE to overlook one little thing that will bring down a bigger part of system.
