Compute Engine (IaaS), a platform from Google that allows organizations to create and manage cloud-based virtual machines, is an infrastructure as a services (IaaS).
Computing infrastructure in predefined sizes or custom machine shapes to accelerate cloud transformation. General purpose machines (E2, N1,N2,N2D) offer a good compromise between price and performance. Compute optimized machines (C2) offer high-end performance vCPUs for compute-intensive workloads. Memory optimized (M2) systems offer the highest amount of memory and are ideal for in-memory database applications. Accelerator optimized machines (A2) are based on A100 GPUs, and are designed for high-demanding applications. Integrate Compute services with other Google Cloud Services, such as AI/ML or data analytics. Reservations can help you ensure that your applications will have the capacity needed as they scale. You can save money by running Compute using the sustained-use discount, and you can even save more when you use the committed-use discount.

Sprites
Sprites by Fly.io is a stateful sandbox environment platform designed to run arbitrary code in isolated Linux computers. Each Sprite is a hardware-isolated execution environment that can persist across runs, making it useful for AI agents, uploaded binaries, developer tools, and application workloads. The platform is built around checkpoint and restore, allowing workloads to pause, resume, and keep state instead of rebuilding the environment repeatedly. Sprites provide a fast NVMe filesystem that syncs continuously to durable external object storage. This tiered storage approach gives users compatibility with normal Linux filesystem behavior while only charging for the data they actually use. Developers can start with the Sprites CLI by logging in, creating a Sprite, executing commands, and connecting to the console. The platform also supports REST API access and SDKs for JavaScript, Go, Elixir, and Python. Pricing is usage-based across CPU time, memory time, hot storage, and cold storage. By combining sandbox VMs, persistent filesystems, checkpointing, APIs, network policy, and pay-as-you-go pricing, Sprites gives developers a practical runtime for AI agents and untrusted code execution.

NullClaw
NullClaw is a highly efficient, ultra-lightweight AI assistant framework crafted in Zig and distributed as a single static binary, enabling it to operate seamlessly on nearly any type of hardware. Its focus is on delivering exceptional performance while minimizing resource consumption, as evidenced by its compact size of approximately 678 KB and a typical RAM usage of around 1 MB, with boot times of less than two milliseconds. By steering clear of traditional runtime overhead associated with virtual machines, interpreters, and complicated dependency chains, it allows developers to deploy agents effortlessly by executing the compiled binary. In spite of its minimal footprint, NullClaw boasts a comprehensive autonomous agent architecture that accommodates over 22 model providers, 18 communication channels, hybrid vector and FTS5 memory, as well as capabilities for streaming, voice, and multi-layer sandboxing. Moreover, security features are inherently integrated, including workspace scoping, explicit command allowlists, encrypted secrets, and robust sandbox isolation through tools like Landlock, Firejail, or Docker. Its design ensures that users can trust the integrity and functionality of their autonomous agents while maximizing efficiency across various applications.
