We performed a comparison between Google Kubernetes Engine and Mirantis Container Cloud based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Container Management solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The logs are important for detecting problems in our clusters."
"The most valuable feature of Google Kubernetes Engine is how you can automatically scale and load balance."
"The feature that I like the most is the ease of use as compared to AWS. Its ease of use is very high, and I can quickly deploy clusters with a simple template."
"On the tip of a command, you can scale in or scale out, and it offers every robust platform to implement DevOps processes for your automation solutions. The product fully supports the IaC concept."
"I am satisfied with the stability offered by the solution."
"Before using this solution, it was a lot of manual tasks and a lot of people participated in the process."
"The initial setup is very easy. We can create our cluster using the command line, or using our console."
"We hardly have a breakdown. It's been very stable."
"This solution has improved our organization with the agility, microservices approach, and scalable solutions for distributed systems."
"You need to make an architectural runway before actually starting to implement Docker Compose, especially in a distributed environment."
"Very easy solution to use as it is intuitive."
"Mirantis Container Cloud operates similarly to how we interact with databases. It provides a comprehensive platform for deploying and managing containerized applications across cloud environments."
"The product's initial setup phase is simple."
"It is a compact, complete solution that performs well."
"The solution is scalable and we have plans to increase usage in the future."
"I think the volume binding is a really interesting feature."
"We would like to see some improvement in the ease of integration with this solution."
"The product's stability is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"I use the Firebase tool with GKE and it would be helpful if the solution can give notifications when we reach the budget limit."
"t is not very stable."
"The monitoring part requires some serious improvements in Google Kubernetes Engine, as it does not have very good monitoring consoles."
"There is a limitation for our infrastructure. It's very complex to see in one dashboard all the components and all the behavior on performance. I am looking for some additional tools for that. If I want to check the disk or file storage, it gets complex. There should be an integrated dashboard so that we can manage everything through a single pane."
"The pricing could be more competitive. It should be cheaper."
"I would like the solution to integrate with another Kubernetes product. I would also like it to monitor other platforms. It needs to also include scale-up container in the tool's next release."
"Sometimes the basic support is a bit difficult if you have a firewall and cloud servers behind the firewall and then try to implement the backup solution, it is a bit difficult to do by yourself."
"The initial setup was quite complex."
"It would be very nice to have a GUI that can be used by any administrator, and not just people who have experience with Docker."
"In my previous years, I have brainstormed about the development of Container software. I have recently shifted focus, but the knowledge gained from those were really helpful. In my experience, Containers have their own complexities and to implement them, open source information is crucial. A software with new features would be beneficial. I suggest to implement a flow-based approach for container sequences, similar to Google Cloud's machine learning. The current process of deploying containers involves too many steps, and a more streamlined method would be appreciated. I've even automated deployment using APIs. Overall, simplifying container management and deployment processes would be valuable."
"Areas for improvement are the privacy of container management and the documentation. In the next release, I would like to see best practices on how to manage distributed containers and networks."
"The solution would benefit in improvements made to the storage, cleaning up information from the disk, and reading logs."
"I would also like to see more features inside Docker as well as more integration with different solutions."
"Integration with Windows is something that can be improved."
