creating simple php website

[Elaena Musitano]

Just found and installed google cloud, was hoping I could simply host my php website which comes with a couple of small databases

but am totally blown away by the complexity of google cloud platform

so much to learn, 

when all I wanna do is host a simple website

Does anyone have a simple link or way to just upload 10 php pages, 

a couple of js and css files and link these to 3 databases 

all of my site is no bigger than 70mb

Any help greatly appreciated

Cheers

Hello
There are several services on Google Cloud for the deployment of a website. If you want to have infrastructure control, you have to use Google Compute Engine. If you don't want to manage the infrastructure, you have to use App Engine. You can also use containers with Cloud Run. For databases you must use Cloud SQL.

If you have any questions do not hesitate.

I would recommend reviewing the following resources:

• PHP on Google App Engine (https://cloud.google.com/appengine/docs/php/)
  
• Cloud SQL (https://cloud.google.com/sql/docs/)

Once you've picked your PHP environment and version, and your database platform of choice, you should see "How-to guide" links that can step you through the process.

+1 for google App Engine Standard with PHP.

For the database, I would suggest to go on Firestore if you want to reduce the cost of the hosting. (although, if you code your own site, not if you use an existing opensource project that need SQL)

With Cloud SQL you pay for a running VM 24h a day, while with firestore you pay per call.
