Today Google announced that it is releasing a beta of its Container Engine, which includes new pricing and features. Google is also announcing the general availability of its Container Registry that allows user to store and access container images from a private repository.
Containers are changing the way apps are managed and deployed, in most cases making them easier. In order for DevOPs and IT to reap the benefits of containers they need the proper tools. Google Container Engine is an easy way to setup a container cluster and manage applications. All users need to do is define their container’s needs (such as CPU and memory) and Container Engine automatically schedules containers in a cluster and manages them. Users can also move workloads and take advantage of multiple cloud providers.
Google Container Engine Beta features include:
Users can easily store container images in private and encrypted registries, using Google Container Registry. Users can also push images for free and pull Docker images within Google Cloud Platform region for free.
