Kubernetes Description

Kubernetes (K8s), an open-source software that automates deployment, scaling and management of containerized apps, is available as an open-source project. It organizes containers that make up an app into logical units, which makes it easy to manage and discover. Kubernetes is based on 15 years of Google's experience in running production workloads. It also incorporates best-of-breed practices and ideas from the community. Kubernetes is built on the same principles that allow Google to run billions upon billions of containers per week. It can scale without increasing your operations team. Kubernetes flexibility allows you to deliver applications consistently and efficiently, no matter how complex they are, whether you're testing locally or working in a global enterprise. Kubernetes is an open-source project that allows you to use hybrid, on-premises, and public cloud infrastructures. This allows you to move workloads where they are most important.

Google Compute Engine Reviews
Google Compute Engine
(4 Ratings)
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.
