GKE simplifies deploying and managing containerized applications, a crucial skill in today's cloud-native landscape. This book guides you from foundational concepts to practical implementation, preparing you to effectively use GKE for scalable and reliable deployments.
The book begins with an introduction to containerization and Kubernetes, laying the groundwork before diving into Google Cloud Platform (GCP) and GKE specifics. You will learn to create and configure GKE clusters, set up your development environment with essential tools like Helm and Argo CD, and deploy applications with scaling and networking configurations. The practical chapters cover monitoring with Prometheus and Grafana, implementing robust security measures, and troubleshooting common GKE issues. Finally, you will explore advanced topics like multi-cluster ingress and service mesh, enabling you to tackle complex deployments.
This book is not a traditional textbook—it is a hands-on guide, written by engineers, for engineers. Over the years of working with Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE), we have gathered insights and practical knowledge that we wish we had when starting out. This book is our way of sharing that knowledge with you, in the hope that it will simplify your journey and make GKE more accessible, whether you are a beginner or an experienced IT professional.
GKE has rapidly become one of the most powerful platforms for managing containerized applications. As businesses increasingly rely on cloud computing, GKE stands out for its scalability, flexibility, and efficiency. With all its power, it can also be complex. That is where this book comes in. We have designed it to be a practical, hands-on resource that simplifies GKE, helping you get started quickly and build the skills you need to deploy and manage containerized applications confidently.
Docker is a containerization platform that allows you to package an application and its dependencies together in a standardized unit called a container. Understanding Docker helps you grasp the fundamental concepts of containerization, including how to create, deploy, and manage containers. To get started with Docker, the easiest way is to get Docker Desktop.
By the end of this book, you will possess a strong understanding of GKE, capable of confidently deploying, managing, and optimizing containerized applications within Google Cloud. You will gain the skills necessary to leverage GKE's full potential, making you a valuable asset in any cloud-native development team.
What you will learn: - Understand core containerization and Kubernetes concepts, integrating with GCP services. - Create, configure, and manage GKE clusters using gcloud and Terraform effectively. - Setup GKE development environments with Helm, Argo CD, and monitoring tools. - Deploy and scale applications on GKE using YAML, deployments, and services. - Implement GKE networking principles, including load balancing and DNS configuration. - Secure GKE clusters, manage secrets, and implement robust security policies.
Who this book is for: This book is tailored for IT professionals transitioning to cloud roles, Computer Science students, DevOps engineers, SREs, platform engineers, and cloud developers seeking to gain practical GKE skills.
