Yep. Of course there's no detail yet so we don't know what exactly was affected. All we can see is "Multiple services are being impacted globally" and a list of services (Build, Firestore, Container Registry, BigQuery, Bigtable, Networking, Pub/Sub, Storage, Compute Engine, Identity and Access Management) but there's no indication of what specifically was impacted. Could you still see status for your VMs, but not launch new ones? Was it mostly affecting only a couple regions? No idea. All we know is they're now below four nines in February for a handful of critical services.

Let's take a gander at incident history: https://status.cloud.google.com/summary

Cloud Build looks bad... three multi-hour incidents this year, four in fall/winter last year.

Cloud Developer Tools have had four multi-hour incidents this year, many last fall/winter.

Cloud Firestore looks abysmal... Six multi-hour incidents this year, one of them 23 hours.

Cloud App Engine had three multi-hour incidents this year, many in fall/winter last year.

BigQuery had three multi-hour incidents this year, many in fall/winter last year.

Cloud Console had five multi-hour incidents this year, many in fall/winter last year. (And from my personal experience, their console blows pretty much all the time)

Cloud Networking has had nine incidents this year, one of them was eight days long. What the fuck.

Compute Engine has had five multi-hour incidents this year, many last fall/winter.

GKE had 3 incidents this year, multiple the past winter.

Can somebody do a comparison to AWS? This seems shitty but maybe it's par for the course?
