Optimization in Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE)

Explore optimization features built into Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE) in this 11-minute video. Learn about cost optimization strategies, scale-down efficiency, GKE autopilot clusters, and cost allocation integrated with Cloud Billing. Discover how to achieve granular workload cost optimization, leverage workload recommendations with Vertical Pod Autoscaler (VPA), and get started with cost-optimized GKE. Follow along as Developer Relations Engineer Anthony Bushong demonstrates these features in the GKE console, providing practical insights to help optimize your Kubernetes clusters on Google Cloud Platform.
