Technical requirements
To link concepts with hands-on examples, we are leveraging a series of tools and platforms commonly used to interact with the Google Cloud API and Kubernetes:
- gcloud CLI (https://cloud.google.com/sdk/gcloud#download_and_install_the) is a set of tools to create and manage Google Cloud resources
- Terraform (https://www.terraform.io/) is infrastructure-as-code software that can be used to provision and manage infrastructure on the cloud
- kubectl (https://kubernetes.io/docs/reference/kubectl/) is the command-line tool used for communicating with a Kubernetes cluster through the Kubernetes API
