Hey Google friends,
I'm not ready to move over to GCloud but I'm interested in prototyping a few applications. Here's a few things on my wishlist:
* Wrapping the cli tool for common db tasks in the way heroku does (ex: heroku pg:push - push local database to production database, heroku pg:pull - pulls production database to local).
* Simpler integration of Cloud SQL with AppEngine flex. It's not a lot of work (https://cloud.google.com/appengine/docs/flexible/python/usin...) but it would be cool to build a flex environment / provision a sql database / setup connection strings in one swoop.
* While you're at it, better AppEngine flex introductory pricing ($40 / mo for 1 vcpu, 512 mb ram) :)
Not related to managed databases but hopefully helpful. TLDR Heroku but on GCloud.
