With data-intensive workloads, you can select from these options to best meet your organization's needs:

  • Fully-managed data solutions: Managed offerings like Cloud SQL, Memorystore, Dataproc, or Spanner are easier to maintain and operate, and can be a good choice if you don't require granular control.
  • Data app on Kubernetes: You can deploy and run your stateful applications on a Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE) cluster, with all the benefits of managed Kubernetes including scalability, security, resilience, and cost effectiveness. You can use Kubernetes operators like those for Kafka and Redis to simplify your workload management.
