Preemptible instances

You can create your Kubernetes nodes as preemptible instances. Preemptible instances last no more than 24 hours and are deleted by GCP. These instances are priced lower than regular VM instances and offer the same configuration, making them an attractive option for running high resource consuming batch jobs. With Kubernetes, these jobs can be distributed across containers and scheduled to run on preemptible instances.

Google Cloud Platform for Architects

Google Cloud Platform for Architects

The Google Cloud Platform is fast emerging as a leading public cloud provider. The GCP, as it is popularly known, is backed by Google's awe-inspiring engineering expertise and infrastructure and is able to draw upon the goodwill and respect that Google has come to enjoy. The GCP is one of a handful of public cloud providers to offer the full range of cloud computing services, ranging from IaaS (Infrastructure-as-a-Service) to PaaS (Platform-as-a-Service). There is another reason the GCP is fast gaining popularity; genre-defining technologies such as TensorFlow and Kubernetes originated at Google before being open-sourced, and the GCP is a natural choice of cloud on which to run them. If you are a cloud professional today, time spent on mastering the GCP is likely to be an excellent investment.
