I'm trying to configure a Google Cloud SQL instance and I have to "Enable Billing".
Is there a way I can avoid enabling billing?
Google Cloud SQL currently does not offer any free trials, so you'll need to enable billing to use the service.
You can create instances by using gsutils command, bypass billing

I tried to create a new logging instance on LogDNA service on IBM cloud , although I chose lite plan
It is always failing with error message
Your account does not allow the use of non-lite plans. You can upgrade by adding a credit card to your account or you can select the lite plan if it's available.
This is a bug, it is being addressed. You could work around this by upgrading your account with a credit card. No charges will be assessed for the free lite plan for the logging with logdna service. Or you can wait for the problem to be addressed.
We intend to develop a enterprise Bot using amazon lex that will fetch response from a SQL server, and display result along with visual presentation. Does Lex support on premise deployment?
Will there be any challenges in using Lex vs Google Dialogflow (formerly known as api.ai)?
Please suggest.
The bot agent you will develop that will reside on AWS, you can access it on AWS Lex console and you cannot have it on-premise.
You can, however, use webhooks which you can have on-premise.
You can use amazon-lex to understand user query and match intent, once the intent is matched, you can perform the operations using if-else conditions and get data from your SQL server.
This way none of your data will be on AWS.
Does anybody know if we can maintain the DNS entries using google cloud console or any other UI? I couldn't find any place in cloud console for DNS admin.
Does the REST API only way to maintain the zone and DNS entries?
Update: There is now a UI for Cloud DNS in the Networking tab of the Developers Console.
Click here to check it out: https://console.developers.google.com/project/_/dns/zones
We have written one in Rails:

It's not perfect (and might be buggy) but we're using it ourselves.
I'm working with Virtual Machines on Windows Azure and according to the following link:
http://www.windowsazure.com/en-us/manage/windows/how-to-guides/connect-to-a-cloud-service/
it is possible to link various Virtual Machines to the same cloud service. The provided link clearly explains how to do it by means of the Windows Azure Management Portal. Nevertheless, in my case, I want to do the same using the REST API. Anyone knows how can it be done?
Thank you so much in advance,
Abel.
I believe you need to "add role" to add a new VM to an existing IaaS Cloud service: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windowsazure/jj157186.aspx
I'm using Azure SQL, and there is a page in there with metrics
From what I understood the new Azure Managment Portal consumes only public apis. What I'm trying to find out is how to access these metrics via a REST or SOAP api. I've searched through the MSDN documentation but couldn't come up with anything.
Anyone have any ideas?
I presume Microsoft did not provide Azure Database monitoring REST or SOAP API as it would not be used much.
DBAs can connect to Azure Database and gather all the necessary statistics via dynamic management views which are quite powerful.
However, I do not have any article / documentation confirming my presumptions.
try the new sys.event_log and sys.database_connection_stats DMVs instead.
