Google Cloud Run
Fully managed compute platform to deploy and scale containerized applications securely and quickly. You can write code in your favorite languages, including Go, Python, Java Ruby, Node.js and other languages. For a simple developer experience, we abstract away all infrastructure management. It is built upon the open standard Knative which allows for portability of your applications. You can write code the way you want by deploying any container that listens to events or requests. You can create applications in your preferred language with your favorite dependencies, tools, and deploy them within seconds. Cloud Run abstracts away all infrastructure management by automatically scaling up and down from zero almost instantaneously--depending on traffic. Cloud Run only charges for the resources you use. Cloud Run makes app development and deployment easier and more efficient. Cloud Run is fully integrated with Cloud Code and Cloud Build, Cloud Monitoring and Cloud Logging to provide a better developer experience.

Marathon
Marathon serves as a robust container orchestration platform that integrates seamlessly with Mesosphere’s Datacenter Operating System (DC/OS) and Apache Mesos, ensuring high availability through its active/passive clustering and leader election mechanism, which guarantees continuous uptime. It supports multiple container runtimes, offering first-class integration for Mesos containers utilizing cgroups as well as Docker, making it adaptable to various development environments. Additionally, Marathon facilitates the deployment of stateful applications by allowing persistent storage volumes to be linked to your apps, which is particularly beneficial for running databases such as MySQL and Postgres with storage managed by Mesos. The platform boasts an intuitive and powerful user interface, along with a range of service discovery and load balancing options to suit diverse needs. Health checks are implemented to monitor application performance via HTTP or TCP checks, ensuring reliability. Users can also set up event subscriptions by providing an HTTP endpoint to receive notifications, which can aid in integrating with external load balancers. Lastly, metrics can be queried in JSON format at the /metrics endpoint, while also being capable of integration with popular systems like Graphite, StatsD, DataDog, or scraped using Prometheus, allowing for comprehensive monitoring and analysis of application performance. This combination of features positions Marathon as a versatile tool for managing containerized applications effectively.

Swarm
The latest iterations of Docker feature swarm mode, which allows for the native management of a cluster known as a swarm, composed of multiple Docker Engines. Using the Docker CLI, one can easily create a swarm, deploy various application services within it, and oversee the swarm's operational behaviors. The Docker Engine integrates cluster management seamlessly, enabling users to establish a swarm of Docker Engines for service deployment without needing any external orchestration tools. With a decentralized architecture, the Docker Engine efficiently manages node role differentiation at runtime rather than at deployment, allowing for the simultaneous deployment of both manager and worker nodes from a single disk image. Furthermore, the Docker Engine adopts a declarative service model, empowering users to specify the desired state of their application's service stack comprehensively. This streamlined approach not only simplifies the deployment process but also enhances the overall efficiency of managing complex applications.
