Advances in AI frameworks enable developers to create and deploy deep learning models with as little effort as clicking a few buttons on the screen. Using a UI or an API based on Tensorflow Estimators, models can be built and served without writing a single line of machine learning code.

If you have large enough deployment on Google Cloud using shared VPC, it’s often easy to lose track of firewall rules applicable to your environment. Here is how I’ve solved the orphaned firewall rules problem.

At Google Next 2019 conference in San Francisco, Google announced that Cloud Run has moved into Beta, so I’ve felt this is a good time to test it on some real-world application.
