Prerequisites
To get the most from this course then you should have some exposure to GCP resources, such as Kubernetes Engine, App Engine, Cloud Functions, Cloud Launcher, and Deployment Manager. However, this is not essential.
In this lesson I'm going to explain how to deploy a container application to Kubernetes Engine using pods. After explaining the process, we'll jump into a demo in the next lesson where I'll show you how it's done.
For this lesson and the next, we'll take a basic web app as an example. We'll run that web app on a Goggle Kubernetes Engine cluster.
When deploying a container app to Kubernetes using pods, you need to complete a series of steps. You first need to package the app into a Docker image. Once the app is packaged, you need to upload the image to a registry. From there, you need to create a container cluster to host the app.
With the container cluster created, you can then deploy the app to the cluster and then expose the app to the internet.
In the next lesson, I'm going to walk you through the process of deploying a containerized web app to Kubernetes Engine.
