we've been using gke(managed kubernetes on Google cloud aka container engine) in production for a year now, and I've been super happy ! I've only had one hiccup where the loadbalancer for some unknown reason stopped routing traffic to my cluster.. I must say, Google cloud has become really really good and there are new features and improvements every month.. It's obvious that Google i channeling many resources into its cloud services.. I have full logging from all my pods, I have rolling updates, I have https load balancing, they just released a cdn, there's automated health checks, super nice cli tool that can control every service on the platform(gcloud) makes it really easy to script it all, advanced monitoring the list just goes on.. The only third party ops we use is Opbeat.. And no, I don't work for Google, I just really love their cloud service and i think it deserves more attention instead of everyone just defaulting to Amazon. I'm the only one i know who uses it.
- wstrange 11y agoI agree - Google needs to promote GCE more. Maybe they should buy some adwords :-) Having used both AWS and GCE, I find GCE is just a better experience. I love the cloud console and the cloud shell. The CLI tools work well. VMs start quickly. For development, preemptible VMs are an incredible bargain.
