The rise of managed Kubernetes platforms
Pretty much every cloud provider has a solid managed Kubernetes offering these days. Sometimes, there are multiple flavors and ways of running Kubernetes on a given cloud provider.
Public cloud Kubernetes platforms
Here are some of the prominent managed platforms:
- Google GKE (https://cloud.google.com/kubernetes-engine/)
- Microsoft AKS (https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/services/kubernetes-service/)
- Amazon EKS (https://aws.amazon.com/eks/)
- Digital Ocean (https://www.digitalocean.com/products/kubernetes/)
- Oracle Cloud (https://www.oracle.com/cloud/compute/container-engine-kubernetes.html)
- IBM Cloud Kubernetes service (https://www.ibm.com/cloud/container-service/)
- Alibaba ACK (https://www.alibabacloud.com/product/kubernetes)
- Tencent TKE (https://intl.cloud.tencent.com/product/tke)
Of course, you can always roll your own and use the public cloud providers just as infrastructure...
