Google Cloud Platform: Cloud Functions, App Engine vs Container Engine.

on YouTube ↗36m

" summary

Concrete comparisons and examples of moving services between App Engine Standard, App Engine Flexible and Container Engine, plus Cloud Functions examples that actually run. App Engine Standard is fully sandboxed with limited OS access and deploys very fast; App Engine Flex is connectable to VPCs and internal databases and runs containers managed by the platform; Container Engine (GKE) is Docker-based clusters with full control, cross-zone cluster peering and autoscaling. Demonstrations include a serverless image OCR/translation pipeline using Cloud Functions + Vision API, 30s deploys, and claims of handling millions of requests/sec and ~15–24% cost differences.
