Earlier quoted context omitted.

Oh interesting - you appear to be correct. You need to enable it through the APIs page then you have access.

confirmed I was able to do this (simply enable the API) on an existing project in the API Console

Oddly, I get a "only available for new customers" message, even after I enable the API.

Hi Joe, I guess you folks are not running containers from customers side-by-side in the same host. So if I scale up my cluster size while I have containers deployed, do you folks rebalance the load on the host machines on the fly (by stopping/relocating some containers) or do you rebalance the new containers?

Can we ban techcrunch please? http://googlecloudplatform.blogspot.com/2014/11/google-cloud...

pg has mentioned in the past that he would like to ban techcrunch, but couldn't do so because they provide so much coverage of his startups.

Submissions from bullshit SV news sites is the price you pay for using a site that primarily exists as a marketing exercise.

Note that 'lower quality' sites about other sections of the tech industry have been banned for years (appleinsider, winsupersite etc).

Correct -- we don't do multi-tenant on the same VM. The security just isn't there in our minds.

We don't do rebalancing/rescheduling/repacking yet. Those are the types of things that we will be working on moving forward.

I'm very surprised they're launching this given the immaturity of Kubernetes.

Fuck this shithole and their shadow banning. I know I've been banned for like over a year now, but it's fucking stupid. I had one bad comment and I've been locked out of dozens of conversations about topics that I could contribute on, but no, no matter what I do, any account gets shadow banned.

Meanwhile, the person I got into an argument with has burned through 3 more throwaways in the meantime.

Can someone explain the difference between Apache Mesos, Apache Spark, and Kubernetes. As someone reading just announcements, and having never experimented with any of these tools, they sound like they promise the same capabilities.

Is it just that they are different open source projects aiming for the same goal ... or are their goals different?

More info/docs here: https://cloud.google.com/container-engine/ I'm on the Kubernetes/GKE team and happy to answer any questions you all might have. We also all hang out on IRC at #google-containers on freenode.

We use AWS Elastic Beanstalk for Docker deployment. Can you comment on how this is different? I see it supports multiple containers per VM - are there other significant distinguishing factors?
