13.2: Benefits of This Configuration

Zero monthly infrastructure cost - No load balancer fees
Automatic SSL certificate renewal - Google manages certificates
Global edge caching - Fast worldwide access via Google's network

13.3: Verification Commands

To verify your domain and SSL configuration:

# Check domain mapping status
gcloud beta run domain-mappings list --region=us-east4

# Test SSL certificate
curl -I https://convert-to-markdown.knowcode.tech

# Verify function accessibility
curl -X POST https://convert-to-markdown.knowcode.tech/xlsx-converter

# Check SSL certificate details
echo | openssl s_client -servername convert-to-markdown.knowcode.tech -connect convert-to-markdown.knowcode.tech:443 2>/dev/null | openssl x509 -noout -text | grep -A2 "Subject:"

13.4: Monitoring SSL Certificate

Google Cloud automatically handles SSL certificate renewal. To monitor:

# View certificate expiration
gcloud compute ssl-certificates list --project=$PROJECT_ID

# The certificate auto-renews ~30 days before expiration

13.5: Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues:

1. DNS Issues: Ensure DNS records point to Google's IPs
2. SSL Errors: Wait 10-15 minutes for provisioning
3. Function Access: Verify functions are deployed to us-east4
