Google Cloud Marketplace

As explained in Google Anthos in Action

Google Cloud Marketplace is a catalog and procurement platform for discovering, acquiring, and deploying commercial and open-source software and services on Google Cloud.

Google Cloud Marketplace is a catalog and procurement platform for trying, buying, configuring, managing, and deploying Google and partner software. It offers free and fee-based applications, including containerized solutions for Google Cloud, Anthos, GKE, and GKE on-prem. section 14.0 section 14.1

The platform supports several operational choices:

• Select default or specialized configurations, such as additional memory, storage, or larger vCPUs. section 14.1
• Deploy solutions across Google Cloud, Anthos, on-premises, and multicloud environments. section 6.2.4 section 14.3
• Use a private Marketplace to give internal developers the same simplified installation experience as the public service. section 14.3
• Monitor and modify deployed workloads with Google Cloud tools, while owning updates after deployment. section 14.1 section 14.2

Deploying Elasticsearch on GKE

Choose the Elasticsearch solution, target cluster, and namespace, then accept or adjust the deployment settings. A sample deployment uses the us-central-1 cluster, the name elasticsearch-1, and two replicas. Marketplace creates the cluster and deploys the application; Anthos can then expose CPU, memory, and disk details for management. section 14.2.1

How Google Anthos in Action covers it

How deep it goes

Covers catalog choices, configuration, environment selection, deployment, monitoring, and update responsibility through an Elasticsearch walkthrough.

Examples

Uses an Elasticsearch deployment on GKE with a selected namespace, two replicas, and Anthos resource monitoring.

What it assumes

Assumes access to a target Kubernetes environment and requires additional setup for on-premises consumption beyond a GCP cluster.

What you can do after

Deploys packaged workloads, selects deployment parameters, and monitors or modifies resulting resources with Google Cloud tools.

How it connects

Connects procurement with Kubernetes, Anthos, GKE, GKE on-prem, multicloud deployment, and Google Cloud resource management.
