GKE

This step explains how to set up your shell environment and create a GKE cluster in your Google Cloud project.

Creating a cluster

1. Gather your cluster requirements for Apigee hybrid cluster: The minimum configurations for your cluster are:

   Configuration	Stateful node pool	Stateless node pool
   Number of nodes	3 (per region)	3 (per region)
   CPU	4	4
   RAM	15	15
   Default label name	apigee-data	apigee-runtime
   Storage	dynamic	Managed with theApigeeDeployment CRD

   For more details on minimum cluster configuration see:Minimum cluster configurations

2. Check the version of GKE supported by this version of hybrid version 1.7.6:
   • Apigee hybrid: supported platforms
3. Use the following instructions to create a regional cluster with a minimum of 6 nodes:
   • Creating a regional cluster.Tip: If you are using the Google Cloud console to create your cluster, add the node pools before clickingCreate to create the cluster.Note: Apigee recommends creating a regional cluster. If you prefer to create a zonal cluster, make sure to use the zone where the instructions ask for your location in subsequent steps.Tip:If you are not creating your cluster in the default network, follow the instructions inCreating a cluster in an existing subnet
4. Create a minimum of two node pools for your cluster. The minimum node pool requirements are:

   Default node pool name	Description	Minimum nodes	Minimum CPUs per node pool	Minimum CPUs per node
   apigee-data	A stateful node pool.	3	4	4/number of nodes in the pool
   apigee-runtime	A stateless node pool.	3	4	4/number of nodes in the pool

   Follow the instructions inAdding and managing node pools.

   For more details about node pool configuration see:Configure dedicated node pools

   Tip: After you create the node pools, you can verify them with the following command:

   gcloud container node-pools list \  --cluster=${CLUSTER_NAME} \  --region=${CLUSTER_LOCATION}

5. After creating the cluster enable workload identity on the cluster with the following command:

   gcloud container clusters update ${CLUSTER_NAME} \  --workload-pool=$PROJECT_ID.svc.id.goog \  --region ${CLUSTER_LOCATION}

   For more information seeEnabling Workload Identity on a cluster

   Note: If you created a zonal cluster instead of a regional cluster, use the--zone argument instead of--region as in the following command:

   gcloud container clusters update ${CLUSTER_NAME} \  --workload-pool=$PROJECT_ID.svc.id.goog \  --zone ${CLUSTER_LOCATION}

6. Get thegcloud credentials of the cluster you just created with the following command:

   gcloud container clusters get-credentials ${CLUSTER_NAME} \  --region ${CLUSTER_LOCATION} \  --project ${PROJECT_ID}

   Note: If you created a zonal cluster instead of a regional cluster, get the credentials with the following command:

   gcloud container clusters get-credentials ${CLUSTER_NAME} \  --zone ${CLUSTER_LOCATION} \  --project ${PROJECT_ID}

When you have a cluster installed and running, go to the next step.
