Scalability
Google Compute Engine offers robust scalability, allowing users to easily increase or decrease resources to match the workload demands. This ensures that businesses can handle growing traffic and data without unnecessary delays.
Performance
GCE provides high-performance virtual machines with the ability to customize CPU, memory, and persistent disk configurations. The underlying infrastructure is optimized for high-speed operations.
Global Reach
With data centers located around the world, GCE provides global reach and redundancy. This ensures low-latency access and high availability for applications and services.
Integration
GCE integrates seamlessly with other Google Cloud services, such as Google Kubernetes Engine, BigQuery, and Cloud Storage. This ecosystem facilitates streamlined workflows and enhanced functionality.
Security
GCE features multiple layers of security including encryption, identity management, and regular compliance audits. These measures ensure that data and applications are well-protected.
Cost-Effective
With per-second billing and various pricing plans, GCE offers cost-effective solutions. Users only pay for what they use, which can lead to significant savings.
Surely you can run your own instances on some sort of “Compute” in GCP? https://cloud.google.com/products/compute.

The backend is written in node.js and is deployed using Google Compute Engine. I wanted to learn Kubernetes but it seemed more complicated and also more expensive than GCE. We also use mongodb.

Google seems to have a free tiny VM offering. AWS and Azure have one for a year. Of course, whether Google’s will still be free in a year is whoknows.

You may have noticed some changes to this site. Along with some style and color changes, I’ve updated the domain, and focused the pages on my technical blog. Originally this site started as an administrative page for the Minecraft servers I am hosting. I built the first Minecraft server in Google Cloud on a general Compute Engine instance, and was running this web page on a separate smaller instance. As the…

To continue my development of The Largest River (my first foray into global application development), I’ve chosen to use Google Compute Engine.

Thanks! I’m pretty new to this so I just want to make sure I have the right idea. Are these links what you’re talking about?

After countless hours of research and development, I’vedecided to run a Container-Optimized OS on Google Compute Engine VMs. These machines run images, which I’ve pushed to the Google Container Registry. As mentioned previously, this is helpful in that the same Docker images can be run locally and in production, with minimal differences in configuration.

These days I had to move some virtual machines (VM’s) between different projects.
After doing a quick search and spent some time, these are the results.
I hope this helps you too.

I have been looking into Google cloud services because they are cost-effective. Would their Compute Engine solution be all I need to have everything up and running? Or do I need something more or something completely different?

I *think* GCE VM’s https://research.google.com/colaboratory/marketplace.html https://cloud.google.com/compute can run colab and don’t collapse(?). Is it the case that colab on them will still collapse or am I buying/paying for something indefinite. Basically I’d really like to be able to run colab/google stuff for e.g. 7 days a shot, without it breaking. Thanks!

Datastore mode had its start in App Engine’s early days (launched in 2008), where its Datastore was the original scalable NoSQL database provided for all App Engine apps. In 2013, Datastore was made available all developers outside of App Engine, and “re-launched” as Cloud Datastore. In 2014, Google acquired Firebase for its RTDB (real-time database). Both teams worked together for the next 4 years, and in 2017,…

Lift-and-Shift: we take an asset and host it more or less 1:1 onto the cloud. E.g., taking a monolithic JEE application and move it to Google Cloud Compute VMs. We get rid of the underlying operations components and machines. But do not enjoy other cloud capabilities.
