Cloud Run is a managed compute platform that enables you to run containers that are invocable via requests or events. Cloud Run is serverless: it abstracts away all infrastructure management, so you can focus on what matters most — building great applications.

Netlify is a web development platform that multiplies productivity.

By unifying the elements of the modern decoupled web, from local development to advanced edge logic, Netlify enables a 10x faster path to much more performant, secure, and scalable websites and apps.

Our bet on the Jamstack is quickly coming true. The web is rapidly changing away from monolithic to decoupled apps, and web developers are storming ahead with more power than ever. Netlify is built to cater to that movement, and in just a few years we’ve onboarded more than a million and a half businesses and developers, and are building and serving millions of web projects daily around the globe.

Fun fact: in the time it took you to read the above, Netlify served over 600,000 requests.

Onboarding

Great tutorials and accessibility, you can quickly go into production with this.

Scalability

Automatic scalability.

Regions

Servers available currently on Asia, North America and Europe. Each Cloud Run service resides in a region. Customer data associated with this service is stored in the selected region. You can serve traffic from multiple regions by configuring external HTTP(S) Load Balancing.

Backups

Includes automatic and on-demand back-ups.

Security

Includes authentication overview,, access management, ingress restriction, encryption keys and more. Mount secrets from Secret Manager. Only deploy trusted container images with Binary Authorization. Bring your own encryption keys. Container instances run in a secure sandbox isolated from other resources, with dedicated identities and permissions.

Onboarding

Start building a database in production in 5 minutes.

Scalability

Automatically done through serverless technology.

Regions

You can pare with AWS and have the same scope. 

Backups

You can backup through Google Cloud.

Security

Across our global Edge, content deployed to the edge nodes is fully prerendered and static, offering no active processes or surface area for attack.

Application code runs on Netlify's build infrastructure (prior to deployment) and when using cloud functions (in production). Both environments are ephemeral, spinning up new, temporary containers just long enough to execute each task. That means there are no idle environments to attempt to exploit and limited exposure to public networks.

Netlify undergoes a SOC 2 Type 2 audit annually, performed by an independent auditor. (Our enterprise customers can request a full audit report.) Netlify is PCI compliant for all SAQ-A requirements to safely process credit card transactions.

Netlify deploys only to major cloud providers who regularly undergo extensive security audits and certifications.

Netlify leverages globally distributed data center partners that comply with leading security policies and frameworks.

• Use the programming language of your choice, any language or operating system libraries, or even bring your own binaries.
• Leverage container workflows and standards
  
• Pay‐per‐use
  
• Fully managed
  
• Fast autoscaling
  
• Integrated logging and monitoring
  
• Process web traffic
  
• Process asynchronous events
  

Manage everything in one project

Netlify Functions are files you write in JavaScript, TypeScript, or Go and then place inside your project under the path netlify/functions. (Easy, right? You can even configure that.) Normally, functions are synchronous with a maximum execution time of 10 seconds. But, adding -background to the end of the filename transforms any function into an asynchronous function that can run in the background with up to 15 minutes of runtime.

Build & test locally

You can use Netlify CLI to run a local development server that you can share with others, run a local build and plugins, and deploy your site. The 2.0 version of our Node-based CLI was rebuilt from the ground up to help improve the site-building experience.

Stage, preview, and rollback

Netlify Functions share all of Netlify’s beloved workflow features. Preview every commit with Deploy Preview links. Rollback when needed by simply clicking a prior deployment.

Run A/B testing and phased rollouts

Deploy and test multiple branches, and even control which users see which version. Plan full experiments and rolling upgrades that include both front and backend code changes. A/B test not just a button color, but an entire user workflow.
