Hello Amit, Appreciate the reply, and thank you for the resource.
However - my question is still open, at the very basic level I would like to read an external data source and load an object to be available in memory on all of my instances. I am using nodejs flexible and memcache is not available, or ideal as I need the data to persist. Ideally I could maybe mount the google cloud bucket as a filesystem, and run a CRON job / task to load any new files from that bucket into memory. Would be great if you can suggest an approach here.
