You can create different kinds of clusters in Google Distributed Cloud, including
admin clusters (to control the resources of your clusters) and user
clusters (to run workloads).
In addition, Google Distributed Cloud lets you create hybrid
clusters that combine administration tasks and workloads, as well as controlling
other user clusters. You can also run Google Distributed Cloud as a
single standalone cluster.
