To scale up fast with surges of traffic, I really like Cloud Run. The auto-scaler is very integrated with the load balancer, so that you can define the max number of requests each instance of your app can handle, and the platform takes it from there. This way, you don't have to worry about request queueing. It even scales down to zero when there is no traffic.

- candiddevmike 3y agoFWIW Cloud Run is extremely expensive if your app doesn't scale to zero, in my experience. You're better off having permanent instances with a CUD.
