A simple way to automatically deploy, scale, and manage Kubernetes.
Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE) provides a managed environment for deploying, managing, and scaling your containerized applications using Google infrastructure. The GKE environment consists of multiple machines (specifically, Compute Engine instances) grouped together to form a cluster.
Explore how to implement solutions using Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE). In this course, you’ll build, schedule, practice load balancing, and monitor your workloads. You’ll also learn how to manage role-based access control and security, and provide persistent storage to your cloud applications.
