Summary

Firebase Hosting now integrates with Google Cloud Run, enabling developers to route Hosting requests to fully managed, stateless containerized backends rather than relying solely on Cloud Functions for Firebase and its Node.js environment. Developers can deploy any Docker image that serves HTTP requests through the required port and responds within 60 seconds, then configure Firebase Hosting rewrites in firebase.json to direct specific paths or API routes to a Cloud Run service. The integration supports languages and frameworks such as Go, Ruby, Java, Dart, and others, while Cloud Run automatically scales containers horizontally and permits up to 80 concurrent requests per container to help reduce cold starts. Firebase Hosting’s global CDN can also cache dynamic Cloud Run responses through Cache-Control headers, improving performance for content that changes infrequently. Although Cloud Run is managed through the Google Cloud console, Firebase projects already include an associated Google Cloud project.
