Summary
In this chapter, we learned about Google App Engine in both of its flavors – Standard and Flexible. We looked at the changes needed to our microservices to allow them to run effectively in the Google App Engine flexible environment, and the configuration we would need to add for Google App Engine. We then learned how to automate the deployment and configuration of our microservices in a Google App Engine application. Finally, we learned some guidelines on how to decide whether the Google App Engine flexible environment is a good match for the application we wish to deploy.
In the next chapter, we will learn about Google Cloud Run and how to deploy and configure our application in the very latest serverless environment available in Google Cloud, thereby futureproofing our application deployment.
