Google Cloud vs Digital Ocean hosting for IronHub #1

GCP would allow us to scale our Hub with the possibility of using the platform GPUs. DO does not have an option for GPU for the Droplets. If we migrate to GCP we will implement the Kubernetes workflow instead of the regular server hosted JupyterHub version. This will have some implications on workflow and updates but the benefits should outweigh the drawbacks.

The migration will also require a non-trivial amount of effort in order to reproduce the entire setup over the new host environment.
