Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE)

Implement a cluster on the Google Kubernetes Engine.

We'll cover the following
  1. From within the Console of your Google Cloud Platform (GCP) project, open the navigation pane on the left-hand side and select Kubernetes Engine > Clusters. You may have to click the three horizontals bars (hamburger) at the top left of the Console to make the navigation pane visible.

  2. Click the Create cluster button.

    This will start the wizard to create a new Kubernetes cluster.

  3. Give the cluster a meaningful name and description.

  4. Choose whether you want a Regional or Zonal cluster. Regional is newer and potentially more resilient – your masters and nodes will be distributed across multiple zones but still accessible via a single highly available endpoint.

  5. Choose the Region or Zone for your cluster.
