Empowering the future

Kubernetes, in short, is an open-source container orchestration platform that has revolutionized the way organizations deploy, scale, and manage containerized applications. Simplifying complex container workflows, ensuring applications run seamlessly across various environments. Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE) delivers a fully managed, secure, and scalable Kubernetes platform, empowering you to deploy and manage containerized applications with ease. GKE Enterprise takes it a step further, simplifying multi-cluster management and extending control across hybrid and multi-cloud environments.

It’s scalable, secure, and simple

By 2027, Gartner predicted that “more than 90% of global organizations will be running containerized applications in production, which is a significant increase from fewer than 40% in 2021.” Containers power and amplify today’s most innovative applications and businesses.

Google was also recognized by
Gartner’s 2023 Magic Quadrant report as a Leader for Container management.
