kpt Description
kpt is a package-centric, toolchain that allows for a WYSIWYG configuration authoring and automation experience. This simplifies Kubernetes platforms, KRM-driven infrastructure, and Kubernetes platforms at scale by manipulating declarative configura as data, separate from the code that transforms them. Kubernetes users manage their resources using either conventional imperative graphical user interfaces or command-line tools (kubectl), or automation (e.g. operators) that directly operate against Kubernetes APIs or declarative configuration tools such as Helm, Terraform or cdk8s. This is mostly due to familiarity and preference on a small scale. It becomes more difficult to create and enforce consistent configurations and security policies in a growing environment as companies increase the number of Kubernetes production and development clusters they use.

Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE)
Advanced apps can be run on a managed Kubernetes service that is secured and managed. GKE is an enterprise-grade platform that allows containerized applications to run, including stateful and non-stateful, Linux and Windows, AI and ML and complex web apps. It also supports APIs and backend services. You can leverage industry-first features such as four-way auto scaling and no stress management. Optimize GPU/TPU provisioning, make use of integrated developer tools, and get multicluster support from SREs. Single-click clusters allow you to quickly get started. You can leverage a high-availability control plan that includes multi-zonal clusters and regional clusters. Reduce operational overhead by using auto-repair, automatic-upgrade, or release channels. Secure by default, with vulnerability scanning of container images as well as data encryption. Integrated Cloud Monitoring with infrastructure, application and Kubernetes specific views. You can speed up app development without compromising security.

Amazon EKS
Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service is a fully managed Kubernetes services. EKS is trusted by customers such as Intel, Snap and Intuit. It also supports GoDaddy and Autodesk's mission-critical applications. EKS is reliable, secure, and scaleable.
EKS is the best place for Kubernetes because of several reasons. AWS Fargate is serverless compute for containers that you can use to run your EKS clusters. Fargate eliminates the need for provisioning and managing servers. It allows you to specify and pay per application for resources and improves security by application isolation by design. EKS is also integrated with AWS Identity and Access Management, AWS CloudWatch, Auto Scaling Groups and AWS Identity and Access Management, IAM, and Amazon Virtual Private Cloud (VPC), allowing you to seamlessly monitor, scale, and load balance your applications.

Fairwinds Insights
Protect and optimize mission-critical Kubernetes apps. Fairwinds Insights, a Kubernetes configuration validation tool, monitors your Kubernetes containers and recommends improvements. The software integrates trusted open-source tools, toolchain integrations and SRE expertise, based on hundreds successful Kubernetes deployments. The need to balance the speed of engineering and the reactive pace of security can lead to messy Kubernetes configurations, as well as unnecessary risk. It can take engineering time to adjust CPU or memory settings. This can lead to over-provisioning of data centers capacity or cloud compute. While traditional monitoring tools are important, they don't offer everything necessary to identify and prevent changes that could affect Kubernetes workloads.

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.
