GCP – Introducing #AskGoogleCloud: A community driven YouTube live series

We’re excited to introduce a new series on the Google Cloud Tech YouTube channel connecting the cloud community directly with our Google Cloud product experts. We’ll be selecting questions that use #AskGoogleCloud on Twitter and YouTube and answer them in a featured premiere each quarter by experts in that area. Each premiere will be paired with a live chat so you can ask your questions live and get them answered with the speakers featured.

Our first segment will be aired on March 12th, 2021 on the topic of serverless architectures featuring Developer Advocates Stephanie Wong, Martin Omander and James Ward. They’ll be addressing questions on the best workloads for serverless, the differences between “serverless” and “cloud native”, how to accurately estimate costs for using Cloud Run and much more.
