From Kubernetes to Cloud Run: Chainguard's Journey

§ Overview

About this video

What You'll Learn

  1. Identify when mostly stateless, spiky-traffic workloads are better moved from Kubernetes or Knative to Cloud Run.
  2. Use Knative-compatible container patterns to move services while removing node and cluster management.
  3. Implement least-privilege IAM, R2 blob storage, and BigQuery event logging for secure image-serving operations.

Jason Hall walks through Chainguard's migration of its image-serving infrastructure from Kubernetes and Knative to Google Cloud Run, covering multi-region Terraform modules, least-privilege IAM, R2 for blob storage, and BigQuery-backed event logging.
