IronWorker
IronWorker helps customers painlessly scale their container based workloads. Users can fire off containers to be run directly from within their application code without needing to worry about the machines that run them. IronWorker scales resources up and down behind the scenes to handle variable loads. It's a little like AWS Fargate + ECS, or Google Cloud Run- serverless + containers. The difference is that IronWorker can be deployed to any public cloud or fully on-premise, in any language. This flexibility is unparalleled, meaning your devops is future-proofed.
VMware vSphere Kubernetes Services (VKS)
VMware vSphere Kubernetes Service (VKS) is the CNCF-certified Kubernetes runtime built directly into VMware Cloud Foundation (VCF), to run all apps. VKS is among the first platforms certified under the new CNCF Kubernetes AI Conformance Program. VKS enables platform engineers to easily deploy, manage and scale Kubernetes clusters while leveraging a comprehensive set of cloud services included in VCF, as well as all CNCF-conformant third party services.
