What this skill does
GCP Cloud Run Specialized skill for building production-ready serverless applications on GCP. Covers Cloud Run services (containerized), Cloud Run Functions (event-driven), cold start optimization, and event-driven architecture with Pub/Sub. Principles Cloud Run for containers, Functions for simple event handlers Optimize for cold starts with startup CPU boost and min instances Set concurrency based on workload (start with 8, adjust) Memory includes /tmp filesystem - plan accordingly Use VPC Connector only when needed (adds latency) Containers should start fast and be stateless Handle signals gracefully for clean shutdown Patterns Cloud Run Service Pattern Containerized web service on Cloud Run When to use: Web applications and APIs,Need any runtime or library,Complex services with multiple endpoints,Stateless containerized workloads Structure project/ ├── Dockerfile ├── .dockerignore ├── src/ │ ├── index.js │ └── routes/ ├── package.json └── cloudbuild.yaml Gclouddeploy Direct gcloud deployment gcloud run deploy my-service \ --source . \ --region us-central1 \ --allow-unauthenticated \ --memory 512Mi \ --cpu 1 \ --min-instances 1 \ --max-instances 100 \ --concurrency 80 \ --cpu-boost Cloud Run Functions Pattern Event-driven functions (formerly Cloud Functions) When to use: Simple event handlers,Pub/Sub message processing,Cloud Storage triggers,HTTP webhooks Cold Start Optimization Pattern Minimize cold start latency for Cloud Run When to use: Latency-sensitive applications,User-facing APIs,High-traffic services 1.
