Go 1.11 has reached end of support
and will be deprecated
on January 31, 2026. After deprecation, you won't be able to deploy Go 1.11
applications, even if your organization previously used an organization policy to
re-enable deployments of legacy runtimes. Your existing Go
1.11 applications will continue to run and receive traffic after their
deprecation date. We
recommend that you migrate to the latest supported version of Go.

Region ID
The REGION_ID is an abbreviated code that Google assigns
based on the region you select when you create your app. The code does not
correspond to a country or province, even though some region IDs may appear
similar to commonly used country and province codes. For apps created after
February 2020, REGION_ID.r is included in
App Engine URLs. For existing apps created before this date, the
region ID is optional in the URL.
You can use various methods to communicate between your App Engine
services or with other services, including Google Cloud services and
external applications.
The simplest approach for communicating with your App Engine service is
to send targeted HTTP requests, where the URL includes the name or ID of a
resource. For example, you can include the ID of a service or version that you
want to target, in addition to the corresponding Google Cloud project ID:
Your App Engine services can also communicate using
Pub/Sub, which provides reliable asynchronous
many-to-many messaging between processes, including App Engine. These
processes can be individual instances of your application, services, or even
external applications.
