Cisco Container Platform Benefits

Cloud Architect, Feltus Lab at Clemson University

As a system administrator, it definitely makes it easier for me to manage clusters without having to switch platforms. I don't have to log in to different things and remember different commands or different ways to do things between the different providers, because they all have slightly different platforms. CCP simplifies all that and allows me to become really familiar with just one platform.

The beauty of Kubernetes clusters is that they're pretty much the same wherever they are. So whatever platform you use to deploy them, Kubernetes clusters are pretty much going to be the same as far as the user-experience goes. It doesn't affect the actual usage of Kubernetes but it definitely makes the deployment of clusters pretty straightforward.

From my experience, CCP definitely gives you a few more options in terms of networking configurability. Those options may be present with GKE; I may not have explored them well enough. But CCP allows you to enable some pretty advanced networking stuff and other management services pretty easily.
