Deploy sophisticated applications using a secure and managed Kubernetes platform. GKE serves as a robust solution for running both stateful and stateless containerized applications, accommodating a wide range of needs from AI and ML to various web and backend services, whether they are simple or complex. Take advantage of innovative features, such as four-way auto-scaling and streamlined management processes. Enhance your setup with optimized provisioning for GPUs and TPUs, utilize built-in developer tools, and benefit from multi-cluster support backed by site reliability engineers. Quickly initiate your projects with single-click cluster deployment. Enjoy a highly available control plane with the option for multi-zonal and regional clusters to ensure reliability. Reduce operational burdens through automatic repairs, upgrades, and managed release channels. With security as a priority, the platform includes built-in vulnerability scanning for container images and robust data encryption. Benefit from integrated Cloud Monitoring that provides insights into infrastructure, applications, and Kubernetes-specific metrics, thereby accelerating application development without compromising on security. This comprehensive solution not only enhances efficiency but also fortifies the overall integrity of your deployments.

Public container registries are hosted out in the open, while many private registries operate from providers’ clouds. Mirantis Secure Registry works where you need it—including on your clusters themselves, putting you back in control. Mirantis Secure Registry is an enterprise-grade container registry that can be easily integrated with standard Kubernetes distributions to provide the core of an effective secure software supply chain. Role-based access control Integrate with internal user directories to implement fine-grained access policies. Synchronize multiple repositories for separation of concerns from development through production. Image scanning Continuously scan images at the binary level and check against a regularly updated CVE vulnerability database. Image signing Developers and CI tools can digitally sign contents and publishers of images, so downstream users and automation tools can verify image authenticity before running. Caching and mirroring Mirror and cache container image repositories to avoid network bottlenecks and make images available across multiple sites for distributed teams and production environments. Image lifecycle Automatically clean up images based on policy controls.
