GCP Three-Tier Web Application
This Google Cloud architecture diagram separates a public entry point, application compute, and managed data services. Users arrive through Cloud Load Balancing. The load balancer sends requests to Cloud Run, where the application runs without managing servers. The application stores relational data in Cloud SQL and files or media in Cloud Storage. The diagram is useful for a design review because it names the managed services and shows the direction of the important application connections. Add identity, caching, monitoring, or private networking when those details are part of the system. Keep the diagram current when equipment, cable paths, service ownership, or security boundaries change, so it remains useful for planning and operations.
Open it in the AI editor with a prompt pre-filled — keep what works, change what doesn't.
Scenario
Cloud application design
Key decisions
- Public entry point: Cloud Load Balancing receives user traffic.
- Compute tier: Cloud Run hosts the application service.
- Data stores: Cloud SQL holds relational data and Cloud Storage holds objects.
When to reuse this
Use this for a small web application whose public traffic, compute, database, and object storage need to be clear.
