My take on GCP is that they have focus areas like Kubernetes, Spanner, Firebase that they do very well on, but for more generic offerings not so much.
For instance, our app uses Postgres 10's native partitioning features, it's REALLY strange to me that Cloud SQL is still on PG 9.6. They also don't communicate effectively on when / if they'll add it which makes planning difficult. AWS on the other hand is already testing PG 11 and has an open schedule in place to their customers can plan ahead.
