Introducing support for GPU workloads and even larger Pods in GKE Autopilot

Run your AI/ML, video transcoding, and other GPU workloads on Google's fully managed Kubernetes platform! NVIDIA T4 and A100 GPUs are now available on GKE Autopilot.The great thing about running GPU workloads on Autopilot is that all you need to do is specify your GPU requirements in your Pod configuration, and Google Cloud take care of the rest. No need to install drivers separately, or worry about non-GPU pods running on your valuable GPU nodes, because Autopilot takes care of GPU configuration and Pod placement automatically.

features requests

Hello everyone, is there a channel, group, or thread, whether in this community or elsewhere, where you can make features requests to the GCP ?I’ve been playing with Cloud Run, which is really a cool service, but I’ve noticed that the `SET UP CONTINUOUS DEPLOYMENT` subsequent form does not allow to look for a Dockerfile that is not in the root of the repo while having the root folder as the build context (as you would do with in a docker-compose file by specifying the context);this prompted me to do something quite ackward, which is creating the same Dockerfile at the root of my project instead of just referencing it from the GCP UI; both files are exactly the same, and it terms of maintenance, this is not great Is there a way to keep a nested Dockerfile as the one which the build will be made from without having to copy the exact same file at root just because of build context ? Does it worth a feature request, if such a channel existed ? Thanks 🙏

health check not working to elastic cloud

Hello.I have an elastic cloud in kubernets and I would like to make the elastic service accessible from the internet, but I can't because elastic needs a token to return 200 in the health check but I couldn't find where to pass the token, so my backend, which is elastic, is always with unavailable status because whenever the health check hits /_cat/health the status returning is 401.

Why Should You Consider Using Docker as a Developer?

Docker is an open source containerization platform. It is a platform that makes it easier, simpler, and safer in building, deploying, and managing containerized applications. Docker provides the ability to package and run an application in a loosely isolated environment called a container. The isolation and security allows you to run many containers simultaneously on a given host. Containers are lightweight and contain everything needed to run the application, so you do not need to rely on what is currently installed on the host. You can easily share containers while you work, and be sure that everyone you share with gets the same container that works in the same way. Read more here

Run Arm workloads on GKE

🚀 Run your Arm workloads on Google Kubernetes Engine with Tau T2A VMs Earlier today, we announced Google Cloud’s virtual machines (VMs) based on the Arm architecture on Compute Engine. Called Tau T2A, these VMs are the newest addition to the Tau VM family that offers VMs optimized for cost-effective performance for scale-out workloads. We are also thrilled to announce that you can run your containerized workloads on the Arm architecture using GKE. Arm nodes come packed with the key GKE features you love on the x86 architecture, including the ability to run in GKE Autopilot mode for a hands-off experience, or on GKE Standard clusters where you manage your own node pools. See the ‘Key GKE features’ below for more details. 👉 Read further https://cloud.google.com/blog/products/containers-kubernetes/gke-supports-new-arm-based-tau-t2a-vms
