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.

Dragonfly serves as a seamless substitute for Redis, offering enhanced performance while reducing costs. It is specifically engineered to harness the capabilities of contemporary cloud infrastructure, catering to the data requirements of today’s applications, thereby liberating developers from the constraints posed by conventional in-memory data solutions. Legacy software cannot fully exploit the advantages of modern cloud technology. With its optimization for cloud environments, Dragonfly achieves an impressive 25 times more throughput and reduces snapshotting latency by 12 times compared to older in-memory data solutions like Redis, making it easier to provide the immediate responses that users demand. The traditional single-threaded architecture of Redis leads to high expenses when scaling workloads. In contrast, Dragonfly is significantly more efficient in both computation and memory usage, potentially reducing infrastructure expenses by up to 80%. Initially, Dragonfly scales vertically, only transitioning to clustering when absolutely necessary at a very high scale, which simplifies the operational framework and enhances system reliability. Consequently, developers can focus more on innovation rather than infrastructure management.
