Edge Appliance
Distributed Cloud Edge Appliance helps you simplify data collection, analytics, and processing at far edge locations. Your data is stored on the appliance, where containerized applications process the data locally using ML inference, aggregation, and custom logic to generate insights. Configurable transfer jobs easily move aggregated insights and relevant data to Cloud Storage when connectivity and bandwidth are available.

Google Distributed Cloud software only
Google Distributed Cloud software extends Google Cloud infrastructure and services into your data center, with Google-provided software running on your own hardware. Google Distributed Cloud software is based on Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE), with its own Kubernetes package that extends GKE for use in an on-premises environment. With Google Distributed Cloud you can create, manage, and upgrade GKE clusters on your own premises while using Google Cloud features, and deploy and operate containerized applications on your clusters at scale using Google's infrastructure. Google Distributed Cloud software can be installed on either VMware or bare metal.
