Google Cloud
Optimal performance
Google has developed a collection of Compute Engine virtual machine images in close collaboration with CIQ so that you get optimal performance when using Rocky Linux on the Google Cloud Platform.
Key features of Google Cloud for Rocky Linux users
One of the key features of Rocky Linux Optimized for Google Cloud is the ability to leverage the scalability and reliability of Google’s hyperscaler architecture. Within Google Cloud, you can freely customize your instances to meet specific needs. You can use Google Cloud's image management capabilities to create custom images of Rocky Linux with specific applications and configurations, and then use these images to spin up new instances as needed. This makes it easy to create a consistent and repeatable environment for your applications, and ensures that you can quickly and easily deploy new instances as your business grows.
These new images contain customized variants of the Rocky Linux kernel and modules that optimize networking performance on Compute Engine infrastructure, while retaining bug-for-bug compatibility with Community Rocky Linux and Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL). The high bandwidth networking enabled by these customizations will be beneficial to virtually any workload, and are especially valuable for clustered workloads such as HPC.
Another key benefit of using Rocky Linux on Google Cloud is that you can easily spin up new instances of Rocky Linux on demand, and scale your workloads up or down as needed. This makes it easy to meet the changing needs of your business, and ensures that you have the resources you need to support your applications and services.
By using Rocky Linux on Google Cloud, you can take advantage of a wide range of cloud services. With Google Cloud, you can easily integrate your Rocky Linux instances with a range of services such as storage, networking, and security, to create a highly-available and secure environment for your applications.
