Service Overview

More and more businesses decided to use cloud native technology to accelerate their digital transformation. Google’s Anthos platform allows you to build and manage modernized hybrid applications in an on-premise environment or a public cloud environment of yours. It is built on Google’s open-source technologies such as Kubernetes, Istio, and Knative and keeps your on-premise and cloud environment consistent. Anthos increases your speed of application development and helps you gain strategic advantages by enabling revolutionary technologies for your business, including service mesh, containers and microservices.

Features

• Modernize in Existing Environment

Upgrade your applications that deployed on-premise or in the cloud with Google’s Kubernetes to increase agility, accelerate time to market, and optimize your resource utilization for maximum result.

• Migrate and Upgrade

Migrate for Anthos allows you to directly migrate workload to Anthos GKE containers. Your target workload can include on-premise systems, compute engines, or other physical servers and VMs in a cloud environment.

• Automate Large-Scale Policy and Security Tasks

We enable you to see your infrastructure architecture from a service perspective, so that you can shorten the time you need to manage applications and increase your control of information, consistency and result. Focus on the high-level management of definitions and configures at the stack level and leave the rest to automation.

• Consistent Experience

Whether you wish to build your services on-premise or in a cloud environment, Anthos provides a consistent user experience and management functionalities. Using the Anthos platform ensures that your invested technology will never become outdated.

Implementation Steps

• Step 1: Build a GKE On-Premise Environment & Establish a Hybrid Network

In this step, we will accelerate your digital transformation and cut unnecessary IT costs by building a GKE on-premise environment in your existing VM environment. This will extend Google’s cloud native services and their latest technologies into your internal system and build a bridge between on-premise and the cloud, so that you may use on-premise and cloud IT resources simultaneously.

• Step 2: Optimize the Visibility, Monitoring and Management of K8S Cluster Containers

A stable IT infrastructure is essential for a business. Cloud platform takes your worries about abnormal IT infrastructure away and allows you to focus on your business by simplifying IT operation management greatly and maximizing IT resources.

• Step 3: Establish an Agile Development Process & Accelerate Application Development

Traditionally, application version upgrade would take several days because the review process is waterfall and has many steps. Now, an agile development process that makes use of container technologies takes care of version releases, security testing, and service validation in a very short time. It saves DevOps communication time, speed up your application development time, and makes your application development more smoothly.

• Step 4: Integrate Cloud Native Services & Innovate Application Services

The new kinds of application services on the market have features such as
artificial intelligence, big data analysis and automation. However, implementing these features requires much manpower and resources. Cloud native services offer tool kits to quickly integrate these technologies into your application services. They help you innovate your business services, create a higher profit margin and satisfy customers more.
