" summary

A postmortem of a production outage where a tournament application received ~60,000 requests/sec causing Cloud Run instances to scale up because container concurrency was set to 10. The talk explains the root-cause debugging steps, names the Cloud Run setting that was changed to restore service, and describes two operational rules adopted: no deploys immediately before major events and investing in concrete monitoring and alerting signals to watch.
