I wanted to Run some Linux commands on my Google Cloud SQL (MySQL) is it possible ? 

commands :   

"cat /proc/meminfo"

Hi @Robinwilliam15, 

Welcome to Google Cloud Community!

No, you cannot run Linux commands directly on Cloud SQL instances. Cloud SQL is a fully managed service, which means that you cannot access the underlying operating system of the server.

I would highly suggest to contact Google Cloud Support whenever you want to investigate about memory usage.

Thanks
