Features

Fully managed platform

Cloud Run is Google Cloud's serverless computing platform that manages your software and infrastructure, so you can focus on coding without managing servers, configuring software, or updating frameworks.

Scale to zero and minimum instances

Cloud Run automatically adjusts instances to manage incoming requests or high CPU usage. You can also use manual scaling for more control.

Pay-per-use pricing

Cloud Run charges you for CPU and memory allocated to an instance every 100ms. With scale to zero, you're only charged when your service is used.

How It Works

Deploy applications, functions, jobs, or containerized workloads without managing servers. Cloud Run automatically handles scaling, networking, and resource allocation based on incoming traffic or triggered events. Benefit from pay-per-use pricing and rapid development cycles by focusing solely on your code.

      On-demand AI inference with GPUs

      Power real-time inference

      Use Cloud Run GPUs to power real-time inference with open-source models such as Gemma 3, Llama 3.2, or custom fine-tuned models. Build chatbots, generate on-the-fly document summaries, and more—all while scaling to handle unpredictable traffic spikes. Or, with GPUs on Cloud Run functions your data scientist can run Python scripts and perform event-driven inference with limited knowledge of the underlying infrastructure.

          Batch data processing

          Run parallel jobs

          Cloud Run jobs are ideal for running parallel data processing tasks that need to complete quickly due to latency concerns.
