Current gig officially made a Prefect account! To get started (on GCP), I'd just be using it to schedule Cloud Functions and Cloud Run stuff we already wrote - would I be okay deploying the server (where the Agents and stuff run) to a Compute instance and running things locally in that case? Cuz each Flow would just be calling a Cloud Function. Or should I dive straight into GKE? Thanks!
(I'm also open to other architecture suggestions! Keep in mind that we don't have a dedicated DevOps person, so lower-maintenance stuff would generally be preferable)

Hi @matta, have not seen you in a while! If you’re just calling Cloud Functions, it seems you should just get a bare bones Compute Instance and hit those Cloud Functions. GKE sounds like overkill

Awesome, thanks!
is a Small (2GB) instance big enough to run the
latest
Prefect container?

For an agent? Not 100% sure but it might be

Hrm, the container's just endlessly restarting. I'll try a bare Ubuntu and put Miniconda and install from there.
