The UI changes take a few days to roll out completely. Even though it's just a label change, we always do slow, safe, rollouts. :)

Product Manager for Cloud Run for Anthos here. Yes, your understanding is correct, though I can't comment on the price point. Note that there's a free trial of Cloud Run for Anthos available until May 2020.

Product Manager for Cloud Run for Anthos here. You can currently use Cloud Run for Anthos with no additional charge beyond GKE until May 2020. After that, you'd need an Anthos subscription to continue using the product. I agree that it

Product Manager for Cloud Run for Anthos here. This is a great question -- thanks for asking. GCF provides a different experience where you provide just snippets of code and you don't have to even build a full app. Of course, this has

(I'm a product manager on the serverless team at Google Cloud) The early access was based on a user account being added to an access list. But, I'm not sure why your team member had access without explicitly asking for it.

(Disclosure: I work at Pulumi) Yes, Pulumi does mutate resources in place, if the cloud provider supports it. For most resources, it will create a new one (such as a new ECS task), and wait for it to be ready before deleting the old one.

(Disclosure: I work at Pulumi.) The `pulumi update` command first shows you a preview of the exact resources it will create. Once you've deployed, you can view all your resources on the pulumi.com console, so you know exactly what has

The main upside is that it's just regular code. This is more natural for some folks, but mainly the advantage is that you can build abstractions. So, you can build a component that's built up from lower-level resources in AWS. For

(I'm a product manager at Pulumi.) Pulumi lets you describe cloud resources using code instead of a config language. It's not like Heroku, it's more like a deployment tool (e.g. Serverless Framework, Terraform, Claudia.js, Ch

(I'm a product manager on Pulumi.) If Terraform works for you, then definitely continue using it. Pulumi is just another option and works well for building libraries and components. I did a rundown of different tools for serverless app

Well, she was targeted by GamerGate. Lots of people who were not involved in the original drama were targeted later.

/s/founded/formed Now, is the rest of the statement true?

by lindydonna 8y ago
If that is true, you should be able to point to articles or statements where game developers advocated censorship. I've talked to Brianna Wu. I've followed her work. She has never advocated censorship.

> the forced censorship of games by those who found them "offensive" or "not inclusive enough". This is false. No one proposed censorship. They proposed and created new games that were more inclusive. In doing this, t

FYI that while you can solve similar problems with Container Instances and Lambda, the closest offering to Lambda is Azure Functions.

by lindydonna 9y ago
FYI that Azure Functions doesn't have this limitation. Code is stored on your own storage account and you can go as high as you want. (Disclosure: I'm a product manager on Azure Functions.)

Not quite, the equivalent of AWS Lambda is Azure Functions. This is more like a managed container service.

The equivalent of AWS Lambda is Azure Functions. It does have the same memory limits as AWS (max 1.5 GB per instance), though you can run for up to 10 minutes. You can try for free for up to 1 hour (no credit card required!) at https:&#x2F

Update: the portal does work if Auth is enabled--the bug was fixed a couple of months ago and we didn't close the issue. See https://github.com/Azure/azure-functions-ux/issues/499

Thanks for the detailed feedback! I think you probably used Functions when it was much newer, and I think we’ve actually addressed all of your issues. - You can create a Function App via ARM/CLI/etc., you can write functions with

Have you tried out Azure Functions? It has pretty good features for continuous integration, a CLI where you can run locally, and a really nice monitoring experience. Obviously it's probably not worth migrating an existing project, but

I've worked at MSFT since 2011, on developer tools and Azure. (My opinions are my own, of course). When I first joined Microsoft, it was prior to the launch of Win8, and I saw a lot of complacency throughout many parts of the company.

It might be a chicken and egg problem, but on Azure Web Apps, Python is much more popular than Ruby. This might be because of Windows vs. Linux, but that's where things are at right now.
