However,\nif your service requires reduced latency and you want to limit the number of\ncold starts, you can change this default behavior by specifying a minimum number\nof container instances to be kept running and ready to serve requests.\n\nInstances kept running in this way do incur [billing costs](/kubernetes-engine/enterprise/knative-serving/pricing).\n\nRevisions and minimum instances\n-------------------------------\n\nMinimum instances are started only if the revision is *addressable*. A revision\nis addressable if either of the following is true:\n\n- It receives a percentage of the traffic.\n- It was assigned a revision tag.\n\nSetting and updating minimum instances\n--------------------------------------\n\nAny configuration change leads to the\ncreation of a new revision. Subsequent revisions will also automatically get\nthis configuration setting unless you make explicit updates to change it.\n\nBy default, container instances have `min-instances` turned off, with a setting\nof `0`. You can change this default using the using the Google Cloud console,\nor the Google Cloud CLI when you deploy a new\n[service](/kubernetes-engine/enterprise/knative-serving/docs/deploying#service) or update an existing service and\ndeploy a [revision](/kubernetes-engine/enterprise/knative-serving/docs/deploying#revision): \n\n### Console\n\n\n1. Go to Knative serving in the Google Cloud console:\n\n [Go to Knative serving](https://console.cloud.google.com/kubernetes/run)\n2. Click **Create Service** if you are configuring a\n new service you are deploying to. If you are configuring an\n existing service, click on the service, then click\n **Edit \\& Deploy New Revision**.\n\n3. Under *Advanced settings* , click **Container**.\n\n4. In the field labelled *Minimum number of instances*,\n specify the desired number of container instances to be kept warm, ready to receive requests.\n\n5. Click **Next** to continue to the next section.\n\n6. In the **Configure how this service is triggered** section,\n select which connectivity you would like to use to invoke the service.\n\n7. Click **Create** to deploy the image to Knative serving and wait\n for the deployment to finish.\n\n### Command line\n\n- For existing services, set the minimum number of container instances by\n running the `gcloud run services update` command with the\n [`--min-instances`](/sdk/gcloud/reference/run/services/update#--min-instances)\n parameter:\n\n ```bash\n gcloud run services update SERVICE --min-instances MIN-VALUE\n ```\n\n Replace:\n - \u003cvar translate=\"no\"\u003eSERVICE\u003c/var\u003e with the name of your service.\n - \u003cvar translate=\"no\"\u003eMIN-VALUE\u003c/var\u003e with the desired number of container instances to be kept warm, ready to receive requests. Specify `default` to clear any minimum instance setting.\n- For new services, set the minimum number of container instances by running\n the `gcloud run deploy` command with the\n [`--min-instances`](/sdk/gcloud/reference/run/deploy#--min-instances)\n parameter:\n\n ```bash\n gcloud run deploy SERVICE --image=IMAGE_URL --min-instances MIN-VALUE\n ```\n\n Replace:\n - \u003cvar translate=\"no\"\u003eSERVICE\u003c/var\u003e with the name of your service.\n - \u003cvar translate=\"no\"\u003eIMAGE_URL\u003c/var\u003e with a reference to the container image, for example, `gcr.io/cloudrun/hello`.\n - \u003cvar translate=\"no\"\u003eMIN-VALUE\u003c/var\u003e with the desired number of container instances to be kept warm, ready to receive requests. Specify `default` to clear any minimum instance setting.\n\n### YAML\n\n| **Caution:** Deploying configuration changes using YAML files replaces the configuration of your existing services. Since a YAML file completely overwrites all configurations, you should avoid using multiple methods to modify your services. For example, do not use YAML files in conjunction with the Google Cloud console or `gcloud` commands.\n\nYou can download the configuration of an existing service into a\nYAML file with the `gcloud run services describe` command by using the\n[`--format=export`](/sdk/gcloud/reference/run/services/describe) flag.\nYou can then modify that YAML file and deploy\nthose changes with the `gcloud run services replace` command.\nYou must ensure that you modify only the specified attributes.\n\n1. Download the configuration of your service into a file named\n `service.yaml` on local workspace:\n\n ```bash\n gcloud run services describe SERVICE --format export \u003e service.yaml\n ```\n\n Replace \u003cvar translate=\"no\"\u003eSERVICE\u003c/var\u003e with the name of your\n Knative serving service.\n2. In your local file, update the `autoscaling.knative.dev/minScale:`\n attribute:\n\n ```yaml\n spec:\n template:\n metadata:\n annotations:\n autoscaling.knative.dev/minScale: '\u003cvar translate=\"no\"\u003eMIN-INSTANCE\u003c/var\u003e' \n ```\n\n Replace:\n - \u003cvar translate=\"no\"\u003eMIN-VALUE\u003c/var\u003ecode\\\u003e with the desired number of container instances to be kept warm, ready to receive requests. Specify `default` to clear any minimum instance setting.\n3. Replace the service with its new configuration using the following command:\n\n ```bash\n gcloud run services replace service.yaml\n ```"]]
