Preface
When I learned about Cloud Run in April 2019, I quickly recognized that this was a product that would radically simplify building, deploying, and scaling ‘cloud native’ web applications.
Public cloud has provided the opportunity to developers and businesses to turn physical servers and data centers into virtual ones. However, virtual machines and virtual networks are still a relatively low-level abstraction. You can take an even bigger leap if you design your application to take full advantage of the modern cloud platform. Cloud Run provides a higher level of abstraction over the actual server infrastructure and lets you focus on code, not infrastructure.
This book is the practical guide you can use to get started with Cloud Run.
Why I Wrote This Book
In my day job as a consultant for Binx.io I work as an engineer and trainer. A large part of my job is about developing a deep understanding about how technology works and teaching what I learned to others, so they can build better systems.
For me, publishing this book is a way to reach more people and help them get ahead. I wrote this book for you! This book will help advance your understanding, so you can become more effective in your day job. I’m hoping that will lead you to more enjoyment and new opportunities. If you’re inspired by my book, I would love to connect and learn more about you! Send me a message on Twitter, my DMs are open.
