And how are you?
The GCP Live event was telling the story around the continuum the Google
Cloud Platform now provides from PaaS to IaaS.
You have GAE and with Managed VMs (combined with Autoscaler) you have GAE
2.0 in the PaaS category. The GAE 1.0 docker images for Java/Php/Python
can be deployed on Managed VMs if you wanted to, and when you want to
customize that image ("I want Java 8"), okay, now you can.
You need to run certain software on cloud servers, go with GCE (servers,
disks, load balancers, etc.) in the IaaS category.
You want something in the middle, go with GKE (Google Containers Engine).
You can deploy the Docker items for Managed VMs to GKE, but if you want to
use features like traffic splitting, etc. then you want to use Managed VM.
Depends on your needs, your choice now.
I try to start in the PaaS section until I need to get out of it due to
certain technical requirements. But excited to have all these choices
along the PaaS to IaaS spectrum.
rock on,
