Summary
In this chapter, you learned how to perform basic management tasks for working with Kubernetes clusters, nodes, pods, and services. The chapter also described how to list the contents of container image repositories. You learned how to pin services in the Cloud Console menu, view the status of Kubernetes clusters, and view image repository and image details using gcloud commands. This chapter also described how to modify and remove nodes and pods. You also saw the benefits of autoscaling in a real-world scenario.
Both Cloud Console and Cloud SDK, including Cloud Shell, can be used to add, remove, and modify nodes, pods, and services. They both can be used to review the contents of an image repository. Some of the most useful commands include gcloud container clusters create and gcloud container clusters resize. The kubectl command is used to modify Kubernetes resources such as deployments and pods.
