Skip this section if you already have a target cluster set up.
If you don't, follow the GKE quick start guide or the steps below:
Install gcloud SDK
Install the kubectl
by running:
gcloud components install kubectl
Set a default project:
gcloud config set project project-id
Set a default compute zone:
gcloud config set compute/zone compute-zone
Run the following command to create a 2 node cluster:
gcloud container clusters create cluster-name --num-nodes=2 --machine-type=e2-standard-2
Please review, GCP's docs for more deployment details and insructions.
Once created, get authentication credentials:
gcloud container clusters get-credentials cluster-name
And, verify you have the intended nodes active:
kubectl get nodes
Once connected, follow the install steps to deploy Pixie.
