Hey Weston here from the GKE On-Prem team. Wifi is spotty at the conference but I'll try to answer questions as they come in.

Will Container-Optimized OS be used as the operating system for on-prem? If so, any plans to spin this off as a more general purpose OS now that it needs to support on-prem use cases?

Right now we're working with a Google-hardened Ubuntu image; same one we use for GKE. COS is still TBD.

Is part of this project intended to support easy federation of Kubernetes workloads across data centers and public cloud?

Any comment on what the pricing model will be like?

What does this mean, if anything, for PKS - i thought that was a joint Google/Pivotal/VMware effort?

It doesn't really mean anything in relation to PKS. GKE On-Prem is Google's strategic on-prem enterprise Kubernetes offering.

Hi Weston, I'm exploring and using Istio in the recent months, so what is the advantage of the "Managed Istio(with commercial level support)" over the community version? As I know the community is still actively optimizing the performance, will the Managed Istio have a better performance?
