GCP lets you set a max instant count in Cloud Run. It’s in the first screen of setting up a service. It really doesn’t get much simpler than that.
- dartos 3y agoYeah GCP is the friendliest cloud provider for sure. Still a big, complex platform with tons of features and things to spend money on, but much more friendly than some others (looking at you, AWS)
- justin101 3y agoGCP's max instance count is helpful to a certain extent, but this doesn't completely protect you unless from DDOS attacks. If you have 3 nodes that can all handle 1000 requests per second, and those requests are doing something expensive the max instance limit doesn't help you. Although I guess if you have 3 nodes that can only handle 100 requests each the damage of a DDOS would be much more limited.
- halfteatree 3y agoTrue, it doesn’t protect you from DDOS. But how is it different from having 3 regular hosts?
- twism 3y agoAnd a billing limit. plus you get a generous amount in the free tier
