Companies searching for a container management platform to run their container, application code or batch jobs
About IBM Cloud Code Engine
IBM Cloud® Code Engine is a fully managed, serverless platform. Bring your container images, batch jobs, or source code and let IBM Cloud Code Engine manage and secure the underlying infrastructure for you. There is no need to size, deploy, or scale container clusters yourself. And no networking skills are required either. IBM Cloud Code Engine will deploy, manage and autoscale it for you. No cluster administration, sizing, or over-provisioning worries. You pay only for what you actually use. Build great apps in the language of your choice, then deploy them in seconds on a serverless platform. No infrastructure management is needed. Cluster sizing, scaling and networking covered. Your apps are automatically secured with TLS and isolated from other workloads. Deploy and more securely integrate web apps, containers, batch jobs, and functions.

IBM Cloud Foundry
Cloud Foundry ensures that the build and deploy aspects of coding remain carefully coordinated with any attached services — resulting in quick, consistent and reliable iterating of applications. As an industry-standard platform as a service (PaaS), Cloud Foundry ensures the fastest, easiest and most reliable deployment of cloud-native applications. IBM offers the Cloud Foundry PaaS in several hosting models, allowing you to customize your PaaS experience and balance a range of considerations, including price, deployment speed and security. Cloud Foundry includes runtimes for Java, Node.js, PHP, Python, Ruby, ASP.NET, Tomcat, Swift and Go. Community build packs are also available. Combined with DevOps services, the application runtimes enable a delivery pipeline that automates much of the iterative development process.

Amazon Elastic Container Service (Amazon ECS)
Amazon Elastic Container Service (Amazon ECS) is a fully managed container orchestration service. Customers such as Duolingo, Samsung, GE, and Cook Pad use ECS to run their most sensitive and mission-critical applications because of its security, reliability, and scalability. ECS is a great choice to run containers for several reasons. First, you can choose to run your ECS clusters using AWS Fargate, which is serverless compute for containers. Fargate removes the need to provision and manage servers, lets you specify and pay for resources per application, and improves security through application isolation by design. Second, ECS is used extensively within Amazon to power services such as Amazon SageMaker, AWS Batch, Amazon Lex, and Amazon.com’s recommendation engine, ensuring ECS is tested extensively for security, reliability, and availability.

AWS Fargate
AWS Fargate is a serverless compute engine for containers that works with both Amazon Elastic Container Service (ECS) and Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (EKS). Fargate makes it easy for you to focus on building your applications. Fargate removes the need to provision and manage servers, lets you specify and pay for resources per application, and improves security through application isolation by design. Fargate allocates the right amount of compute, eliminating the need to choose instances and scale cluster capacity. You only pay for the resources required to run your containers, so there is no over-provisioning and paying for additional servers. Fargate runs each task or pod in its own kernel providing the tasks and pods their own isolated compute environment. This enables your application to have workload isolation and improved security by design.

Amazon EKS
Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (Amazon EKS) is a fully managed Kubernetes service. Customers such as Intel, Snap, Intuit, GoDaddy, and Autodesk trust EKS to run their most sensitive and mission-critical applications because of its security, reliability, and scalability. EKS is the best place to run Kubernetes for several reasons. First, you can choose to run your EKS clusters using AWS Fargate, which is serverless compute for containers. Fargate removes the need to provision and manage servers, lets you specify and pay for resources per application, and improves security through application isolation by design. Second, EKS is deeply integrated with services such as Amazon CloudWatch, Auto Scaling Groups, AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM), and Amazon Virtual Private Cloud (VPC), providing you a seamless experience to monitor, scale, and load-balance your applications.
