description IBM Cloud Code Engine Overview

IBM Cloud Code Engine is a fully managed serverless platform that automates container deployment and scaling for applications, microservices, and batch jobs without requiring Kubernetes cluster management.

help IBM Cloud Code Engine FAQ

Is IBM Cloud Code Engine built on top of Kubernetes?

Yes, IBM Cloud Code Engine is built upon Kubernetes and Knative technology, but it completely abstracts away the underlying cluster management. This means developers can deploy containerized applications without ever interacting with Kubernetes YAML files or node scaling rules.

How does IBM Cloud Code Engine charge for batch jobs?

Code Engine uses a serverless, pay-as-you-go pricing model based on the exact amount of vCPU and memory consumed by your application down to the millisecond. If your batch job is not running, you are not billed for idle compute resources.

Can I run an entire web application on IBM Cloud Code Engine?

Absolutely, Code Engine is designed to support a mix of batch jobs, event-driven functions, and long-running web applications. You can easily map custom domains to your Code Engine applications and let the platform handle automatic TLS/SSL certificate management.

Does IBM Cloud Code Engine support auto-scaling to zero?

Yes, one of the key benefits of the serverless architecture in Code Engine is its ability to scale workloads down to zero when there is no incoming traffic. When a new web request hits the application, the platform rapidly spins the container back up to handle the load.
