Migrate to Containers overviewUse Migrate to Containers to modernize traditional applications away from virtual machine (VM) instances and into native containers that run on Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE) or Cloud Run platform. You can migrate workloads from VMs that run on VMware or Compute Engine, giving you the flexibility to containerize your existing workloads with ease. Migrate to Containers supports modernization of IBM WebSphere, JBoss, Apache, Tomcat, WordPress, Windows IIS applications, as well as containerisation of Linux-based applications.
The Migrate to Containers CLI is a lightweight tool that you can use on your local machine for migrating your workloads to modernize application components that run on VMs. It generates artifacts that you can deploy to GKE or Cloud Run. The offline mode lets you perform migrations of your Linux-based workloads locally and can work on your local network without pulling resources from the internet during runtime.
You can migrate applications from supported source platforms to the following:
About Migrate to Containers integration with Cloud CodeThe Migrate to Containers integration with the Cloud Code gives you the ability to migrate applications from VMs to containers running on GKE, directly in Visual Studio, using a Linux machine.
To learn more about the Migrate to Containers extension, see Replatform Linux applications to containers.
About GKE and GKE Enterprise clustersGoogle Kubernetes Engine (GKE) clusters provide secured and managed Kubernetes services with autoscaling and multi-cluster support. GKE lets you deploy, manage, and scale containerized applications on Kubernetes, powered by Google Cloud.
GKE Enterprise is an application management platform that provides a consistent development and operations experience for cloud and on-premises environments. GKE Enterprise includes a set of core components, including the following:
GKE clusters: container orchestration and management service for running Kubernetes clusters in both cloud and on-premises environments. GKE Enterprise relies on GKE clusters on Google Cloud or Google Distributed Cloud to manage Kubernetes installations in the environments where you intend to deploy your applications.
Config Sync: continuously reconciles your clusters to a central set of configurations that are stored in a source of truth, like one or more Git repositories.
Policy Controller: defines, automates, and enforces policies across environments to meet your organization's security and compliance requirements.
Config Controller: a hosted service to provision and orchestrate Google Cloud resources.
Cloud Service Mesh: manages and secures traffic between services while monitoring, troubleshooting, and improving application performance.
GKE Enterprise security: secures your hybrid and multi-cloud deployments by providing consistent controls across your environments.
Cloud Run is a managed compute platform that lets you run stateless containers using web requests or Pub/Sub events. The simplified Linux service manager lets you deploy your migrated container workloads on Cloud Run.
