Deploying a Kubernetes Cluster Using Google Kubernetes Engine

You work for a small startup that is developing a new e-commerce application. The application needs to be highly available and scalable, so your team decides to test a deployment on a two-node Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE) cluster.

To accomplish this, you will complete the following tasks:

• Create a GKE cluster in the us-central1 region.
• Deploy a test application to mimic the application.
• Configure autoscaling to a max of 4 nodes.
• Test the cluster to see if what you created works!

Use the following YAML code to configure the application:

apiVersion: v1
kind: Service
metadata:
  name: vote-service
  labels:
    app: vote
spec:
  selector:
    app: vote
  ports:
    - name: http
      port: 80
      targetPort: 80
    - name: udp
      port: 5000
      targetPort: 5000
  type: LoadBalancer

apiVersion: apps/v1
kind: Deployment
metadata:
  name: vote-deployment
  labels:
    app: vote
spec:
  replicas: 2
  selector:
    matchLabels:
      app: vote
  template:
    metadata:
      labels:
        app: vote
    spec:
      containers:
        - name: vote
          image: dockersamples/examplevotingapp_vote:before
          ports:
            - name: http
              containerPort: 80
            - name: udp
              containerPort: 5000
