Reaching quota for ip address in use too fast for App engine

问题

I have a webserver running in App Engine and the client is a mobile app. I am seeing that a lot of requests on the mobile are starting to fail once we scaled up to a lot of users. I am not seeing any failures in our logs however. I noticed in our quotas that our ip address in use for Compute Engine API is at its max of 8 (even though we're not running any services on Compute Engine). I am not sure if this is the root cause but it wasn't like this before, I was wondering if there is any advice on how to address this problem or if there are better way to structure our server to meet our use case.

EDIT: Our current configuration is a flex environment on App engine, with minimum 2 instances. We also have a MySQL instance. Those pretty much so far everything we've used.

runtime: php
env: flex

api_version: 1

handlers:
- url: /.*
  script: public/index.php

runtime_config:
  document_root: public

beta_settings:
    # for Cloud SQL, set this value to the Cloud SQL connection name,
    # e.g. "project:region:cloudsql-instance"
    cloud_sql_instances: "<project>:<region>:<sql-instance>"

You didn't mention it in your question but I believe you are using App Engine Flexible environment. Under the hood, App Engine flex apps run on (hidden from you) Compute Engine instances in your project. So it actually goes against Compute Engine quotas as well, including the "ip address in use" for your App Engine Region.

The "ip address in use" impacts your App Engine flex app in that it'll limit the number of instances your app will be able to scale up to, since each instance uses its own IP. For example, as per the app.yaml file you provided, your scaling setting defaults to automatic scaling with minimum 2 instances and maximum 20 instances. The "ip address in use" quota will prevent your app to upscale above 8 instances when the number of users using your app increases.

One other thing to note is that you may have previous versions of your service that are still running. If they have the same scaling setting, this means they'll have minimum 2 instances running each, which will count towards the "ip address in use" quota also.

Since you can't deploy your App Engine instances in a network in another region that the one you set for your App Engine app, the only solution here is to request a quota increase. In your Developer Console, got to IAM & admin > Quotas, select this particular quota and click on the "Edit Quotas" button at the top and follow the instructions.
