This makes me seriously consider switching from heroku for my rails postgres app. Probably could cut my costs significantly.
Anyone have any comments or experiences with the Google app engine flex environment for ruby?
- jsolson 10y agoDrop me an email (see profile), I'll connect you with a Rubyist at Google who can talk all about Ruby on GCP.
- thagomizer 10y agoI'm the Ruby Developer Advocate for GCP. I've used App Engine Flex with Rails 5 on a couple projects recently. Nothing huge but one is in production (it is for a local non-profit). I've found it to be a great way to get things out the door quickly and I love the auto-scaling. It doesn't have all the magic of App Engine Standard and deploy times are slower than I'd like (~5 minutes). But I'm okay with that if I can use my own database, any library I want, and I have full portability. I did a blog post with some of the stuff that I learned: http://www.thagomizer.com/blog/2017/03/09/rails-on-app-engine.html http://www.thagomizer.com/blog/2017/03/09/rails-on-app-engin...
