Overall, there are some GCP components that have been introduced in previous sections. Now you can start to set up Kubernetes on GCP VM instances using those components. You can even use kops that was also introduced in Chapter 9, Kubernetes on AWS too.
However, GCP has a managed Kubernetes service called GKE. Underneath, it uses some GCP components such as VPC, VM instances, PD, firewall rules, and LoadBalancers.
Of course, as usual, you can use the kubectl command to control your Kubernetes cluster on GKE, which is included Cloud SDK. If you don't install the kubectl command on your machine yet, type the following command to install kubectl via Cloud SDK:
//install kubectl command $ gcloud components install kubectl
