Remove question about running tasks in containers #160

Closed desbo closed 3 years ago

desbo commented 3 years ago

I think this part of the FAQ is misleading. I'm using Cloud Run to process Cloud Tasks messages, performing a task that's similar to an ETL job, which seems to contradict this advice.

I also think it contradicts an earlier statement in this FAQ:

[Cloud Run is suitable for] data transformation, background jobs, potentially triggered asynchronously by Pub/Sub events or Cloud Tasks

as well as the "Data processing" use case from the official documentation.

I'd suggest that we remove this section.

The answer to this question is subject to change soon and I think the question still makes sense as is.

I will disagree that "running once" is the same thing as a payload (can be an ETL job) that comes over a request. :)
