It would be interesting to see a comparison to App Engine, which seems like a better fit than Kubernetes for low-traffic sites.

Yeah, App Engine would have cost $0 since that traffic would fit in the free tier.

Cloud Run would be the slightly more general and newer way to do this too, and the free tire there is 2 million req/month. I _think_ he could have migrated containers directly from GKE.

Oh wow, I'd never heard of Cloud Run before. Just popped some numbers in that I think are correct and it did come within the free tier range.
