Can you compare Google Run to App Engine Flex? They sound similar.

  Cloud Run uses gVisor for its sandbox, Flex runs your container in a dedicated VM. Cloud Run has a limit of 80 concurrent requests to a copy of your app. Cloud Run has a limit of 2 GiB for memory. Flex gives you more flexibility over VM shape (CPU, mem), so is suited better to apps that have a higher load. Flex does not scale to zero. Cloud Run deployments should be faster (Flex provisions a load balancer for each deployment, which can be slow). Both support deploying directly from container image. Disclaimer: I work on GCP but have only worked a tiny bit on/with Cloud Run.
