Google Cloud

Avoid GCP now because it's pricing is insane. I got billed 100 euro for empty Postgres database that I held for 2 weeks only and made 0 hits to as I was setting things up. I get that you rent a full virtual machine but it's still a rip off. Actually of opinion now that both AWS and GCP are trash and should be avoided.

Looking into Railway & Cloudflare now for any cloud compute I want to do.

Connecting to CloudSQL from Go

1. Connecting to Cloud SQL (Postgres) from a Go web app
2. Connect using the Cloud SQL Auth proxy
