AutoML Translation: 30% of all our requests finishes with timeout

[ochkarik]

In our project we use 21 custom trained models to translate from EN to target_language.

Last week 30% of all our requests finishes with timeout! What is the problem?!

How can you/we fix it?

Hi @ochkarik 

Welcome back to Google Cloud Community.

Setting request timeout (services)
For Cloud Run services, the request timeout setting specifies the time within which a response must be returned by services deployed to Cloud Run. If a response isn't returned within the time specified, the request ends and error 504 is returned.

The timeout is set by default to 5 minutes and can be extended up to 60 minutes.

Here are some articles that might help you:

Hello, friends! Now everything is working very well - 0 timeout error! Thank you!

But we noticed another minor problem: after uploading new dataset for training language model and after training the model we do not receive any email notifications about operation finishing.
