Deploying on Google GKE

You can deploy and manage IBM® Workload Scheduler containers on Google GKE.

Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE) provides a managed environment for deploying, managing, and scaling your containerized applications using Google infrastructure. The Google GKE environment consists of multiple machines grouped together to form a cluster. You can also deploy and run Google Cloud SQL for SQL server.

As more and more organizations move their critical workloads to the cloud, there is an increasing demand for solutions and services that help them easily migrate and manage their cloud environment.

To respond to the growing request to make automation opportunities more accessible, IBM Workload Scheduler can now be deployed on Google GKE. Within just a few minutes, you can easily launch an instance to deploy an IBM Workload Scheduler server, console, and agents with full on-premises capabilities on the Google GKE public cloud.

IBM Workload Scheduler deployed in a cluster environment improves flexibility and scalability of your automation environment. It helps in lowering costs and eliminating complexity, while reducing the operational overhead and the burden involved in managing your own infrastructure, so you can invest your time and resources in growing your business.

Running the product containers within Google GKE gives you access to services, such as a cloud database service. Cloud SQL for SQL Server is a managed database service that helps you set up, maintain, manage, and administer your SQL Server databases on Google Cloud Platform

Full details and deployment instructions are available in the IBM Workload Automation Chart readme file.
