Containerize applications anywhere and be cloud ready
Anthos clusters lets you take advantage of Kubernetes and cloud technology anywhere. You get Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE) experience with secured, managed, and simple installs as well as upgrades validated by Google. You can run a wide variety of containerized applications, including stateful and stateless, AI and ML, Linux, and Windows. Leverage industry-first features like four-way auto-scaling and no-stress management. Use integrated developer tools and get multi-cluster support from Google’s Site Reliability Engineers. Additionally, Google Cloud Console gives you a single pane of glass view for managing your clusters across on-premises (bare metal or VM), hybrid, and multi-cloud environments.
Consistent Kubernetes experience
Keep your environments in sync with the same Kubernetes version, OS, runtime, and add-ons between Kubernetes service deployed in your on-premises (bare metal or VM) environment and in the cloud (hybrid or multi-cloud).
Secured Kubernetes clusters
Always stay up to date with the latest Kubernetes versions and security patches tested and validated by Google. Upgrade with confidence with zero downtime.
Centralized multi-cluster management
Monitor, manage, and enforce policies across all your Google Kubernetes Engine clusters—whether in hybrid or multi-cloud, or on-premises on bare metal or VM—from Google Cloud Console.
