Google Distributed Cloud (Distributed Cloud) is software that extends
Google Cloud's infrastructure and services into your data center, with
Google-provided software running on your own hardware.
Distributed Cloud is built on
Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE),
with its own Google Distributed Cloud package that extends
GKE for use in an on-premises environment. With
Google Distributed Cloud, you can create and manage Kubernetes clusters on
hardware in your own data center, while using Google Cloud features.
Distributed Cloud includes VM Runtime on Google Distributed Cloud, which lets you run
VMs on top of Kubernetes in the same way that you run containers. With
VM Runtime on GDC, you can run existing VM-based workloads as
you also develop and run new container-based applications.
