  3. Anthos is an open application platform that can help you accelerate app development, and enables consistency across hybrid and multi-cloud environments.
    Google Cloud’s Anthos is a comprehensive and advanced solution that can be leveraged to deploy managed Kubernetes clusters in the cloud and on-premises. Anthos provides a GKE on-premises option you can use to deploy new GKE clusters into your private cloud on-premises. It's also possible to register existing non-GKE clusters with Anthos. GKE on AWS helps in multicloud scenarios, where a compatible GKE environment in AWS can be created, updated, or deleted using a management service from the Anthos UI. Meanwhile, Anthos Config Management and Service Mesh solutions help with policy automation, security management, and visibility into your applications deployed across multiple clusters for a unified management experience.

  4. Bring your own containers and deploy to App Service as a web app running on Linux in seconds using Web App for Containers feature of Azure App Service.
    Azure Web App allows you to deploy containers on the service using container images from Docker Hub or Azure Container Registry. The backend OS patching, capacity management, and load balancing of services are handled by the platform, and the service enables on-demand scaling, either through scale-up or scale-out options based on configured scaling rules. This also helps with cost management, where costs are automatically reduced during off-peak hours. The service ensures high availability as well since the container services can be deployed across multiple Azure Regions.
