Which operating systems are available to use on a Kubernetes Engine node?

  1. Container-Optimized OS (COS) or Ubuntu

  2. Red Hat or Fedora

  3. Windows Server or CentOS

  4. Debian or SUSE

The correct answer is: Container-Optimized OS (COS) or Ubuntu

Container-Optimized OS (COS) and Ubuntu are the only available operating system options for Kubernetes Engine nodes. COS is a lightweight operating system specifically designed for containers, making it the ideal choice for running applications on a Kubernetes cluster. Ubuntu is also a popular option for its ability to support a wide range of applications. Red Hat and Fedora, Windows Server and CentOS, and Debian and SUSE are not supported operating systems for Kubernetes Engine nodes.
