Getting Started with Google Kubernetes Engine

Google Cloud

Welcome to the Getting Started with Google Kubernetes Engine course. This comprehensive course, offered by Google Cloud, is designed to equip you with the fundamental knowledge and practical skills to effectively utilize Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE). Throughout the course, you will delve into various aspects of GKE, including its components, architecture, and operations. The course starts by introducing you to Google Cloud and its compute platforms, providing insights into cloud computing, resource management, and billing. You will then explore containers and Kubernetes, gaining an understanding of container images, Kubernetes concepts, and Google Kubernetes Engine. The subsequent modules delve into Kubernetes architecture, covering concepts such as Kubernetes components, object management, and GKE Autopilot. Finally, the course focuses on Kubernetes operations, where you will learn about the kubectl command, introspection, and deploying GKE Autopilot Clusters from Cloud Shell.

With a blend of theoretical insights and hands-on labs, you will acquire the skills needed to create and manage GKE clusters using the Google Cloud console and gcloud/kubectl commands. By the end of the course, you will be well-versed in leveraging GKE as a managed service on Google Cloud, enabling you to containerize and run applications efficiently in a Kubernetes environment.
