+1 for Cloud Run.
I've tried many of the serverless platforms and maybe it's the types of applications I work on, but I've found most of their limitations (short runtime, limited access to resources on your private network) basically make them useless. The more self-hosted types that don't have these limitations lose out on many of the benefits or are leaky abstractions on k8s.
Cloud Run has all the benefits I want: extremely easy deployment and scaling, as well as the ability to scale to zero if you need it (though generally you don't), while still being able to run basically whatever workload I want. My current employer is mostly a Python shop but we recently deployed a little .NET core service on Cloud Run and it's been awesome.
