Google Cloud Function deployment failure

Question

I am new to Google Cloud Platform, and I am trying Google Cloud Functions but it is showing really strange behavior. I'm trying to run the following code:

exports.helloPubSub = (event, context) => {
 const pubsubMessage = event.data;  
 console.log(event.data.attributes);
 console.log(Buffer.from(pubsubMessage, 'base64').toString());
};

But when I click to create a function, the deployment fails and hardly after trying 8-9 times it gets deployed. The error which it throws is

Deployment failure:
Build failed: {"cacheStats": [{"status": "MISS", "hash": "0bb4aa23414dd82b8643cb2c86b5a55af031b22701fbe364a88ea6e61ad481a4", "type": "docker_layer_cache", "level": "global"}, {"status": "HIT", "hash": "0bb4aa23414dd82b8643cb2c86b5a55af031b22701fbe364a88ea6e61ad481a4", "type": "docker_layer_cache", "level": "project"}]}

Is it a bug in Google Cloud Platform or am I doing something wrong? If I am doing something wrong, then I shouldn't be able to deploy it even once.

Any help would really be appreciated. Thanks a lot!

If we look at the Google Cloud Status, we find that there is an outage with Cloud Function deployment at this time (the time of your post). I can't seem anything wrong with what you have coded and strongly believe that you are being impacted by the outage.
