Cloud Run Basics

Cloud Run is a fully managed application platform for running your code, function, or container on top of Google's highly scalable infrastructure. It abstracts away infrastructure management, providing three primary resource types:

1. Services: Responds to HTTP requests sent to a unique and stable endpoint, using stateless instances that autoscale based on a variety of key metrics, also responds to events and functions.
2. Jobs: Executes parallelizable tasks that are executed manually, or on a schedule, and run to completion.
3. Worker pools: Handles always-on background workloads such as pull-based workloads, for example, Kafka consumers, Pub/Sub pull queues, or RabbitMQ consumers.
