Google Kubernetes Engine vs HPE Ezmeral Container Platform comparison

"It is easy to use and deploy."

"We appreciate that it is quite easy to set up a Kubernetes cluster in Google Cloud, using the managed services within this solution."

"Regarding deployment in the cloud platform, it is simple because there are pre-configured configurations."

"The most valuable aspect of Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE) is its managed nature, which significantly reduces the burden on our platform team."

"The product’s dashboard is very intuitive."

"I highly recommend it to others due to its comprehensive features and cost-effectiveness for various company sizes."

"The most beneficial feature is the ability to separate each project and manage permissions more effectively."

"The main advantage of GKE is that it is a managed service. This means that Google is responsible for managing the master node in the Kubernetes cluster system. As a result, we can focus on deploying applications to the slaves, while Google handles any updates and security patches. The fact that GKE is fully integrated into the Google ecosystem, including solutions such as BigQuery and VertexAI. This makes it easier for us to integrate these tools into our process. This integration ultimately speeds up our time to market and reduces the time and effort spent on managing infrastructure. The managed aspect of GKE allows us to simply deploy and utilize it without having to worry about the technicalities of infrastructure management."

"The stability of the HPE Ezmeral Container Platform is good, and I rate it an eight out of ten."

"If customers focus on primary apps or if they are using them for data science, this is a good solution."

"The management UI could be improved. When looking at the web interface, it feels kind of slow due to the many features involved."

"There are some security issues, but it might just be because we are not up to speed yet as much as we should be and so we haven't found it in the documentation yet. That's why I don't want to confuse this. Still, it could be a little bit easier to understand and implement."

"There is room for improvement in this solution. For example, auto-scaling can be complex. We expect it to be easier to set up and manage, even for our customers."

"An area in which Google Kubernetes Engine could improve is configuration."

"The network configuration has to be simplified."

"t is not very stable."

"I have created a couple of issues with Google tech support, and I am not satisfied with the assistance I received."

"Google Kubernetes Engine is less stable in some highly complex deployments with many nodes."

"HPE Ezmeral Container Platform is not user-friendly and has many parts that are more difficult than Cloudera. It is also a complex solution and has low features for data management."

"The modernization in Ezmeral could be improved."

"We are planning to use external support, and hire a commercial partner for it."

"I rate the product's price a six on a scale of one to ten, where one is low price and ten is high price. The product is competitively priced."

"The solution's price is reasonable."

"The price for Google Kubernetes Engine could be lower - I'd rate its pricing at three out of five."

"Initially, Google Kubernetes Engine was a little bit cheaper, but now its prices have been increased compared to the pricing model and the features that are made available by its competitors."

"Its pricing is good. They bill us only per user. That's nice."

"Pricing is a bit expensive compared to some other products, but it's acceptable."

"I would rate the solution's pricing a nine out of ten. The tool costs around 3000 dollars per month. There are no additional costs apart from these."
