Do you know if the daily budget works for App Engine Managed VMs as well? I want to use them for a personal project, but was unsure if the daily budget would stop overcharging since they are using Compute Engine underneath.
Agreed. We use Google App Engine for our recommendation engine (https://recent.io/) and daily budgets are a core feature -- just tap on the "Application settings" tab.
We use AWS for some additional components of our service that aren't part of the core recommendation engine, and I've been surprised by the lack of a maximum-dollars-per-day setting. Or if there is one, I'm not aware of it.
