title: Building an API on Google Cloud Platform
body: <p>I'm building an app and the idea is to go serverless.</p>
  
  <p>I'm looking mainly at AWS and GCP (Google Cloud Platform), and as AWS costs are a bit obscure (at least for me), and there is no way to ensure not being billed, I'm going with GCP.</p>
  
  <p>For the "server" part of the app, I would like to build an API on GCP as I could do with AWS API Gateway, but I couldn't find any matching product for that.</p>
  
  <p>The closer one was Google Cloud Endpoint, but it seems to have a very different concept from AWS API Gateway. I've watched some videos about it (for example <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bR9hEyZ9774" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bR9hEyZ9774</a>), but still can't get the idea behind it or if it fits my needs.</p>
  
  <p>Could someone please help clarify which GCP product would be suitable for creating an API and how it compares to AWS API Gateway?</p>
  
  <p>Some link with info/example on how to do it would be really appreciated.</p>
