Turbocharge workloads with new multi-instance NVIDIA GPUs on GKE
With the launch of multi-instance GPUs in GKE, now you can partition a single NVIDIA A100 GPU into up to seven instances that each have their own high-bandwidth memory, cache and compute cores. Each instance can be allocated to one container, for a maximum of seven containers per one NVIDIA A100 GPU. Further, multi-instance GPUs provide hardware isolation between containers, and consistent and predictable QoS for all containers running on the GPU. Read more.
Sign here! Creating a policy contract with Configuration as Data
Configuration as Data is an emerging cloud infrastructure management paradigm that allows developers to declare the desired state of their applications and infrastructure, without specifying the precise actions or steps for how to achieve it. However, declaring a configuration is only half the battle: you also want policy that defines how a configuration is to be used. Here’s how to create one.
SRE at Google: Our complete list of CRE life lessons
We created Customer Reliability Engineering, an offshoot of Site Reliability Engineering (SRE), to give you more control over the critical applications you're entrusting to us. Since then, here on the Google Cloud blog, we’ve published over two dozen blogs to help you take the best practices we’ve learned from SRE teams at Google and apply them in your own environments. Here’s a guide to all of them.
The evolution of Kubernetes networking with the GKE Gateway controller
This week we announced the Preview release of the GKE Gateway controller, Google Cloud’s implementation of the Gateway API.
