AWS is catching up as far as Kubernetes support. I might agree that GCP is better positioned for some of that architecture, but they are still comparable. There are also some advantages to AWS. For example, I think that their RDS product is still more mature than Google Cloud SQL.

It's all trade-offs.

+1 regarding RDS. A company I spoke to is moving from GCP to AWS, with their biggest pain point being Cloud SQL is WAY less flexible than RDS. While GCP's k8s offering is better/easier to use, they still have some catching up to do.

To drive the second point home, GCP recently released VPC Flow Logs, while AWS has had it for a good while now.
