Here's something to ponder for those who don't see Google(s goog) Compute Engine as ready for primetime: RightScale will start reselling and providing first-line support of the Google public cloud infrastructure. This is big news. RightScale prides itself on providing cross-cloud monitoring, alerts and management -- for Amazon(S amzn) Web Services, for Rackspace(s rax), for HP(s hpq) Cloud and now Google Compute Engine or GCE.
Like hypervisors; multi-vendor, multi-cloud platforms will become common place.
