To create and\nto run containers on VMs and MIGs, use one of the following solutions instead:\n\n- Run Docker container on VMs using a startup script or `cloud-init`: to run a container on a single VM or on each VM in a MIG, use one of the [Container-optimized VM images](/compute/docs/containers#container_images) and configure container using a [startup script](/compute/docs/containers/migrate-containers#startup-scripts) or [`cloud-init`](/compute/docs/containers/migrate-containers#cloud-init).\n- [Google Kubernetes Engine](/kubernetes-engine/docs/concepts/kubernetes-engine-overview): to deploy and manage containerized applications at scale.\n- [Cloud Run](/run/docs/deploying): to run stateless container applications and small or medium jobs.\n- [Batch](/batch/docs/create-run-basic-job): to run a batch job that has a definite end state and requires additional computing resources.\n\nFor more information, see\n[Migrate containers that were deployed on VMs during VM creation](/compute/docs/containers/migrate-containers).\n\nShutdown schedule\n-----------------\n\nThe following table lists the shutdown schedule for Compute Engine\ncontainer startup agent."]]
