Cloud Deploy (AWS-First + GCP Parity Notes)

# Cloud Deploy (AWS-First + GCP Parity Notes) Deploy the flagship to a free tier; record URL + cost. Every step has a GCP mirror — learn AWS first, note GCP second. ## 1. AWS path (default) Container: ECR image -> App Runner or ECS Fargate (free-tier-shaped). Env via parameter store; `/health` wired to the target-group check. Record: public URL, region, monthly free-tier headroom, first-bill screenshot (expect $0). ## 2. GCP parity path Artifact Registry image -> Cloud Run service (min-instances 0, concurrency set per m4 reading). Secrets via Secret Manager. Record the same four fields. ## 3. Cost discipline Free-tier alarms before deploy, not after. Any spend needs the written sign-off pattern from the RAG cost dashboard — same rule, new cloud.
