I've had great success running Rails apps with Google Run. If you can live with the initial request sometimes taking 1-2s it's great. All my usage is within the free tier and once it's set up with Google Build, it's fire and forget

Cloud Run? Did you do any work to get cold boots faster?

  You can have your cake and eat it, too. Have a minimum of 1 instance "on", with the CPU in low-power mode until a request comes. This way, you get low cost in idle times without cold starts. https://cloud.google.com/blog/products/serverless/cloud-run-adds-min-instances-feature-for-latency-sensitive-apps https://cloud.google.com/blog/products/serverless/cloud-run-...

    But you get charged for that 1 instance running all the time which kind of defeats the whole point of it being serverless?

      They say in the blog post those instances are charged a very reduced value when idle. IIRC something in the order of 20-30% of the original one.
