Focus on Your Code, Not Infrastructure, with Google Cloud Functions

on YouTube ↗54m

" summary

Live demo shows a Node.js backend deployed as Google Cloud Functions that starts as a three‑joke array and gets to an MVP in an hour, then evolves: Twilio → HTTP trigger, Google Sheets as editable admin, migrate to Cloud SQL when tens of thousands of rows slow reads, decouple analytics via pub/sub → BigQuery, and a cost example where 10 million invocations ≈ $23/month. All code deploys with a single command and the flow is proven end to end.
