It’s the other way round on Cloud Platform Vincent.
App Engine is a 20 second setup. GKE is where you get more control but you have to get involved in the intestines some more.
We’ve done work on Kubernetes (GKE) too, but only for things that absolutely require us to configure infrastructure.
For example we’re not going to write weather forecasting from scratch, so we’ll have to use a non-PaaS open source solution and build on that.
In this case we’ll put the backend open source stuff on GKE first, then do all the new web and mobile backend stuff on App Engine.
