Amazon Systems Manager alternative on GCP


Is there a solution/service available on GCP in similar lines of Systems Manager? My end goal is to run a shell script on GCP VM on specific events.

Like for AWS, via EventBridge I was able to trigger a Lambda Function and the function in turn triggered a SSM command for specific VM.

Is this possible on GCP?


Solution

  • There isn't a Systems Manager equivalent in GCP.

    A Pub/Sub subscription from the VMs/compute units which triggers a lambda function (cloud function in GCP) is a suboptimal solution and different from what Systems Manager accomplishes..
