The document provides an overview of Google Cloud's Anthos platform and how it can be used with HPE SimpliVity infrastructure to build a hybrid cloud strategy. Some key points:
- Anthos allows building and managing modern hybrid and multi-cloud applications across on-premise and public cloud infrastructure without vendor lock-in.
- HPE and Google Cloud visions are aligned in providing freedom of choice and a hybrid cloud optimized for containers.
- Using Anthos with HPE SimpliVity's hyperconverged infrastructure allows managing container-based applications across on-premise, Google Cloud, and other clouds in a flexible way.

Main components : Anthos on premise
Admin GKE cluster – Every Anthos deployment
requires a admin GKE cluster to be deployed
first. This cluster acts as the central control
plane for all user GKE clusters and acts as the
connector between the on-prem cluster and
GCP.
User GKE Cluster – You can deploy one or
more user GKE clusters once the admin
workstation and admin cluster and installed.
The user GKE clusters execute the user
container workloads. These clusters can be
managed from the GCP console once the
clusters are installed and registered with GCP.
Admin workstation – this is the VM that
acts as the deployment host for all GKE
Cluster on-prem. You would login to the
admin workstation to kick-off the Anthos
cluster deployments and configuration
44. 44
GKE on-Prem Cluster with HPE SimpliVity Architecture
44
In GKE On-Prem, there is an
admin cluster and, by default,
three user clusters. There are
also two add-ons VMs and one
admin workstation VM. All of
these VMs run in a single
vSphere cluster.
45. 45
H/W Requirement for Anthos on premise
vSphere requirements
– VMware vSphere is a suite of virtualization software that includes VMware vCenter Server, a management tool, and
VMware ESXi, a type-1 hypervisor. You install GKE On-Prem to a VMware vSphere 6.5 cluster that you have configured in
your data center. To learn about installing vSphere, refer to Overview of the vSphere Installation and Setup Process in the
VMware documentation.
Resource requirements for admin and user clusters
When you install GKE On-Prem, you create two GKE clusters:
– An admin cluster
– A user cluster
The admin cluster runs the GKE On-Prem infrastructure, and the user cluster runs your workloads. After the initial
installation, you can create additional user clusters.
Your vSphere environment must have enough storage, CPU, and RAM resources to fulfill the needs of your admin and user
clusters. The resource needs of your user clusters depend on the type of workloads you intend to run.
