-This guide will provide step by step instructions on how to self-host Infisical using Cloud Run.
-
-## Configuration
-
-
-
- Visit [Docker Hub](https://hub.docker.com/r/infisical/infisical/tags) and select a version of Infisical image you would like to deploy.
- Then paste the url of the specific Infisical Docker image you would like to use within the `Container image URL` field.
-
- 
-
- Remember to replace `` with the docker image tag of your choice.
-
-
- For a minimal installation of Infisical, you must configure `ENCRYPTION_KEY`, `AUTH_SECRET`, `DB_CONNECTION_URI`, `SITE_URL`, and `REDIS_URL`. [View all available configurations](/self-hosting/configuration/envars).
-
- You will want to setup Postgres and Redis within Google Cloud Platform to connect to Infisical.
-
- Once you have added the required environment variables to the `Environment Variables` section within Cloud Run,
- create the container to get Infisical up and running.
-
- 
-
-
- The above environment variable values are only to be used as an example and should not be used in production

+title: "Google Cloud Run"
+description: "Reference architecture for self-hosting Infisical on Google Cloud Run."
+---
+
+## Overview
+This guide outlines a reference architecture for deploying Infisical in a self-hosted configuration using Google Cloud Run.
+It is intended to provide a scalable, secure, and production-ready baseline for organizations choosing Google Cloud Platform (GCP) as their infrastructure provider.
+
+## Core Components
+
+- **Cloud Run:** Infisical backend and frontend services are containerized and deployed as fully managed Cloud Run services.
+
+- **Cloud SQL:** Infisical uses Postgres as it's persistence layer. As such, Cloud SQL for PostgresSQL is used.
+
+- **MemoryStore for Redis:** To enhance performance, Infisical requires Redis.
+
+## Securing Infisical's root credential
+
+- **Secrets Manager:** To secure Infisical’s root credentials (database connection string, encryption key, etc),
+we highly recommend that you use Google Secrets Manager and only allow the tasks running Infisical to access them.
+
+## High Availability and Scalability
+
+This architecture leverages Google Cloud's managed services to achieve high availability and scalability out of the box:
+
+**Cloud Run:**
+
+- Automatically scales the number of container instances up or down based on incoming request volume.
+- Supports rapid scaling during traffic spikes, ensuring low latency.
+- Configurable minimum and maximum instances to handle baseline and peak loads.
+
+**Cloud SQL:**
+
+- Provides high availability configurations (regional instances with automatic failover) to ensure database uptime.
+- Automated backups, point-in-time recovery, and maintenance.
+
+**MemoryStore:**
+
+- Offers highly available Redis configurations with replication.
+- Fully managed with automatic scaling and patching.
+
+**Cloud Load Balancer:**
+
+- Distributes user traffic across available Cloud Run instances.
+- Provides SSL termination, global load balancing, and health checks.
+
+
+ **Note:** To further improve performance and availability, consider enabling multi-region deployment strategies,
+ regional VPC Connectors, and database replicas for read-heavy workloads.
+
+
+## Configuration
+
+
+
+ **Cloud SQL (PostgreSQL):**
+ - Create a Cloud SQL instance.
+ - Under `Zonal availability`, select the `Multiple zones` option to ensure High Availability.
+ - Configure private IP access.
+
+ **MemoryStore (Redis):**
+ - Deploy a Redis instance.
+ - Configure VPC access.
+
+
+
+ Visit [Docker Hub](https://hub.docker.com/r/infisical/infisical/tags) and select a version of Infisical image you would like to deploy.
+ Then, within Cloud Run, paste the url of the specific Infisical Docker image you would like to use within the `Container image URL` field.
+
+ 
+
+ Remember to replace `` with the docker image tag of your choice.
+
+
+ For a minimal installation of Infisical, you must configure `ENCRYPTION_KEY`, `AUTH_SECRET`, `DB_CONNECTION_URI`, `SITE_URL`, and `REDIS_URL`. [View all available configurations](/self-hosting/configuration/envars).
+
+ You will want to setup Postgres and Redis within Google Cloud Platform to connect to Infisical.
+
+ Once you have added the required environment variables to the `Environment Variables` section within Cloud Run,
+ create the container to get Infisical up and running.
+
+ 
+
+
+ The above environment variable values are only to be used as an example and should not be used in production
+
+
+
+
+
+ Enable `Connect to a VPC for outbound traffic`: This enables the service to talk to private resources (e.g., a Cloud SQL database, Redis instance on a private IP) inside your Google Cloud VPC network.
+
+ Select `Send traffic directly to a VPC`: It gives lower latency and better performance, but uses more IPs from the subnet.
+
+
+ Your Cloud Run revision must be in the same VPC network
+
+
+ 
+
+ Once the container is running, verify the installation by opening your web browser and navigating to the site url.
+
+
+
+
+## Summary
+
+Self-hosting Infisical on Google Cloud Run enables a highly scalable and secure deployment without managing infrastructure manually.
+ Using GCP-managed services like Cloud SQL and MemoryStore, combined with Cloud Run's serverless capabilities, organizations can quickly
+ deploy Infisical with minimal operational overhead while maintaining enterprise-grade security and performance.
