APP ENGINE: DEPLOY A WEB APPLICATION ON APP ENGINE WITH AUTOMATIC SCALING
ENABLED.
Google App engine is a Platform -as -a -Service (PaaS) that lets you build, deploy and host web
applications on Google’s infrastructure handling infrastructure management and scaling
automatically.

Step1: Log in to your google cloud console

Step2: Enable the required API’s

Before deploying your application, enable the App Engine API:

Search for APP engine in the search tab

Step3: Click on create application-> then select the area [asia-south1]->Click Next->

Step4: Create a simple application

Folder structure:

/my-app-demo

├── app.yaml # GCP App Engine configuration

├── main.py # Your Flask app code

└── requirements.txt # Python dependencies

• Open cloud Shell application in a new tab and create a project directory

mkdir my-app-demo

• pip install gunicorn in the terminal


• Next, type nano main.py
• Under main .py file type the below code
from flask import Flask

app = Flask(__name__)

@app.route('/')

def home():

return 'Welcome to google app engine with auto scaling'

if __name__ == '__main__':

app.run(host='0.0.0.0', port=8080)

Now, Type CTRL+S to save your code, then CTRL+X Y then enter key

Step5: Create a requirement file.txt

nano requirements.txt

inside the file, add the following dependencies

Flask==2.0.1

gunicorn

Step6: Create a yaml file i.e. nano app. yaml

runtime: python311

entrypoint: gunicorn -b:$PORT main:app

automatic_scaling:

min_instances: 1

max_instances: 5

target_cpu_utilization: 0.65

target_throughput_utilization: 0.75

handlers:

11- url: /.*

12 script: auto

Save and close (CTRL + X, Y, Enter).


**Type ls in the command prompt to see whether all three files are successfully created**

Step7: run the command-> gcloud components update

Then type -> gcloud app browse

[optional**If your getting bad gateway error while viewing your app then install

sudo apt install nginx -y]

Then type gcloud app update

Next, gcloud app deploy type y when prompted

Click on the https project link where the app is been deployed
Step 8: Monitor and Manage Your Application

• Automatic Scaling: The configuration in app.yaml enables automatic scaling based on CPU
and throughput utilization. You can adjust the min_instances and max_instances values as
needed.

• Logs: You can view logs for your application using:

To check the log, gcloud app logs tail -s default
