Product Details

What is IBM Cloud Code Engine?

IBM Cloud Code Engine is a fully managed, serverless platform that unifies the deployment of containers and applications including web apps, microservices, event-driven functions, or batch jobs. This serverless compute service aims to remove the burden of building, deploying, and managing workloads in Kubernetes so users can focus on writing code and not on the infrastructure that is needed to host it.

With IBM Cloud Code Engine users can run any workload serverlessly. That includes long-running containers and batch jobs as well as bursty and short-lived functions. The platform dynamically scales containers according to load, has monitoring, logging and a service mesh “built in.” The vendor states users don't need to choose between long execution times, high resource limits, private networking and scale-to-zero but instead have it all on one fully-managed platform, without needing infrastructure skills.

I used it to deploy a full stack app to manage IoT devices connected to the cloud using Mongo DB. After a while the solution was replaced for a corporate solution using a competitor and the test was concluded. It is just like any other cloud service. It has the IBM behind it but unless we have something to differentiate, price is what will be the main focus.

Code Engine is a managed and serverless PaaS infrastructure that lets customers focus on their core business logic while freeing them up from PaaS related concerns.

Code Engine runs on K8S and scales elastically - incorporating declarative and immutable concepts in solution deployment. It supports multiple programming models and is suitable for many problem spaces.

My customers are trying to use this platform for migrating away from Cloud Foundry appications.

Our team use Code Engine to create a crawler to collect data from Sharepoint. For me, code engine is good container management tools while we want to create microservice for current project. It is easy to maintain and update the containers. However, the console in the code engine page on IBM does not support features it can support. Many features have to be set on your local machine.

I used IBM Cloud Code Engine almost everyday. I worked in a healthcare industry, where the IT technicians are very low on the number and needed to maintain a great deal of resources and hence IBM Cloud Code Engine was our choice. IBM Cloud Code Engine definitely changed the way we work in the company. Many non technicians were able to just use the service with no problems. Definitely recommend it

Impressive Cloud solution and the most suitable choice with basic coding capability. Running container workload via IBM Cloud Code Engine is very effective, and I really love the capability to monitor various dataflow through Cloud service. IBM Cloud Code Engine enables development Engineers to easily manage deployment and the networking functions are perfect.

Our client needed a service to host a web application (Front-end and Back-end) with the specific requirement to have a host that is elastic both vertically and horizontally based on the needs and that there is also the ability to self-adjust based on the volume of requests. The web app also had to be put into containers capable of restarting itself in case of a crash and deploy through a toolchain.

It is used by our Coding team to run our websites and all running applications that manage our workflows. It enhances the effective design of relevant and functional workforce management tools to manage production. Editing and customization of websites are easy and can be done quickly. Our programming team finds it easy to code and create keys that ease our application's performance.

Developers across our organization utilize IBM Cloud Code Engine for a number of use cases, including running applications, functions, and batch operations. Instead of spending time managing infrastructure and configuring hosting environments, our engineers can concentrate on writing code. IBM Cloud Code Engine provides an end-user experience for developers that is easy, adaptable, and intuitive. While the documentation is a little weak, but a person with prior knowledge can easily be adapted to the workflow very easily.

IBM Cloud Engine is being used at SiB Solutions to host our cloud services. It helps us concentrate on the task of implementing a good service. [It also] takes away most of the infrastructure management, allowing us to provide a stable and fast service while also developing it further in an efficient way. What it especially does is free us from having to learn a lot of different services for each different need we have. [This] is based on open technologies that we already know, and it can take the form we need it to for the different cases we have.

IBM cloud engine provides a completely managed non-server program. It helps in deploying containers and application based on websites, event driving functions, and micro-servers. It has helped us in managing Kubernetes workloads.
