Google Compute Engine (GCE) is a service provided by Google Cloud Platform (GCP) that allows you to create and run virtual machines (VMs) on demand. With GCE, you can choose from a variety of pre-configured machine types, or create your own custom machine type, with varying amounts of CPU and memory.
GCE allows you to create, configure, and manage virtual machines running Linux or Windows. You can also use GCE to create custom images, which can be used to create new instances with specific configurations and software pre-installed.
GCE provides high-performance virtual machines, with options for high-memory, high-CPU, and high-I/O machine types. With GCE, you can also use the autoscaling feature to automatically adjust the number of instances running based on the load on your application.
GCE also provides an easy way to attach persistent storage to your instances, such as hard disk drives (HDD) and solid-state drives (SSD), and you can use load balancers to distribute incoming traffic across multiple instances.
Overall, GCE is a powerful tool that allows you to easily create, configure, and manage virtual machines on GCP, and provides the flexibility and scalability you need to run your applications.
