For this example App Engine and even Cloud Functions are perfect serverless resources to deploy the API too.
Actually, what I want to show in this post are two things:
1.- Buildpacks are relative new on GCP and I know a lot of devs that are lock in on Docker, so I wanted to show them that there are other options to build container images.
2.- Kubernetes has deprecated Docker so the next question was "What are we going to do with our containers in Cloud Run (Knative)?" .
Cloud Run is the cheapest way to run a container on GCP and migrate to GKE or Anthos is easier. Maybe I simplified too much the code lol.
By the way, for those who are new to GCP, you can check the docs for more information and use cases of serverless on GCP cloud.google.com/serverless#section-6
For further actions, you may consider blocking this person and/or reporting abuse
We're a place where coders share, stay up-to-date and grow their careers.
If you use just buildpacks, why not Google App Engine?
Hi Pacharapol, excellent question!
