description Google Anthos Overview
Google Anthos was a Google Cloud platform for managing applications across Google Cloud, other public clouds, and on-premises infrastructure. It focused on containerized workloads, Kubernetes environments, policy controls, and consistent operational tools across locations. Google introduced Anthos in 2019 as a hybrid and multi-cloud offering for organizations that did not want to run all applications in one environment. Google later incorporated Anthos capabilities into its broader Google Distributed Cloud and Google Cloud product structure.
