A community-maintained lookup table mapping Google internal technologies and services to their external and open-source equivalents. It helps former Google engineers find real-world alternatives to internal tools like Borg, MapReduce, and Stubby.

Use cases

  • find open-source equivalents to Google internal systems
  • map Google Cloud products to AWS or open-source alternatives
  • onboard ex-Googlers to non-Google infrastructure
  • compare distributed systems like Borg vs Kubernetes vs Mesos
  • choose a pub/sub or RPC technology for a new project
  • learn how Google internal tech relates to industry-standard tools

When to choose

  • you are an ex-Googler looking for equivalents to internal tools
  • you want a quick reference comparing Google, cloud-vendor, and open-source technologies
  • you are designing infrastructure and want to see the landscape of options

When to avoid

  • you need detailed documentation or tutorials rather than a mapping table
  • you need up-to-date vendor pricing or product details
  • you require a curated, opinionated recommendation rather than a broad list
