Hey Nick/Stephen, Thank you very much for your responses!
I looked at Stephen's suggestion and created a new service/module within my GAE app that runs the docker-dd-agent Docker image. I updated my project on Github <https://github.com/ingojaeckel/weather-wear/tree/master/modules/docker-dd-agent> accordingly. Now my app consists of two modules: * A: The default service which acts as the HTTP(S) front-end. This is a Golang app running within the flexible environment. * B: A separate docker-dd-agent service based on a custom Dockerfile <https://github.com/ingojaeckel/weather-wear/blob/master/modules/docker-dd-agent/Dockerfile>. This service is not accessible via HTTP. Now I want that my *default service (A) can communicate with the custom runtime (B) over TCP* (port 8125 in this case). But after reading https://cloud.google.com/appengine/docs/flexible/custom-runtimes/build#listen_to_port_8080 I am *not sure if custom runtimes are supported if they do not provide HTTP access*. I disabled the (HTTP based) health check in B via app.yaml <https://github.com/ingojaeckel/weather-wear/blob/master/modules/docker-dd-agent/app.yaml>. But is this enough to allow communication from A to B?
