Google Cloud Platform

Deploy Your AI-Built App to Google Cloud

Google Cloud Platform offers Cloud Run, App Engine, and Firebase for hosting AI-generated apps. Its IAM model, billing alarms, and networking defaults often trip up developers deploying AI-built code for the first time.

Common Google Cloud Platform deployment issues

Real problems from AI-generated apps deployed to Google Cloud Platform.

Config

Cloud Run container port misconfigured

Cloud Run injects the PORT environment variable, but AI-generated Dockerfiles hardcode port 3000 or 8080, causing the container to fail health checks and never become healthy.

Security

Service account with Owner role

AI-generated deployment scripts use the default compute service account with overly broad Owner permissions instead of custom roles scoped to required APIs.

Performance

Cloud Run concurrency set to 1

Default concurrency of 1 request per container instance causes excessive scaling and costs. AI tools don't optimize concurrency settings for the application's actual threading model.

Networking

VPC connector not attached for private resources

Cloud Run services can't reach Cloud SQL or Memorystore instances in a VPC because AI-generated configs omit the Serverless VPC Access connector.

Config

Billing alerts and quotas not configured

AI-generated infrastructure lacks budget alerts and API quotas, risking unexpected charges from runaway scaling or abuse.

Frequently asked questions

Why won't my Cloud Run service start?

Cloud Run requires your container to listen on the PORT environment variable (not a hardcoded port). Ensure your server reads process.env.PORT and binds to 0.0.0.0. Also verify your container starts within the configured startup timeout.

How do I connect Cloud Run to Cloud SQL?

Use the Cloud SQL Auth Proxy via a Cloud Run sidecar or Unix socket connection. You also need a Serverless VPC Access connector if using private IP. Don't expose your Cloud SQL instance publicly just because the AI tool couldn't connect during development.

Can SpringCode deploy my AI-built app to GCP?

Yes. We configure Cloud Run correctly, set up IAM with least-privilege service accounts, wire up VPC connectors for private resources, and add billing alerts to prevent cost surprises.
