Discover the methodologies and best practices for getting started with Google cloud automation services including Google Cloud Deployment Manager, Spinnaker, Tekton, and Jenkins to automate deployment of cloud infrastructure and applications. The book begins with an introduction to Google cloud services and takes you through the various platforms available to do automation on the GCP platform. You will do hands-on exercises and see best practices for using Google Cloud Deployment Manager, Spinnaker, Tekton, and Jenkins. You'll cover the automation aspects of the Google Cloud Platform holistically using native and upcoming open source technologies. The authors cover the entire spectrum of automation from cloud infrastructure to application deployment and tie everything together in a release pipeline using Jenkins. Pro Google Cloud Automation provides in-depth guidance on automation and deployment of microservices-based applications running on the Kubernetes platform. It provides sample code and best practice guidance for developers and architects for their automation projects on the Google Cloud Platform. This book is a good starting point for developers, architects, and administrators who want to learn about Google cloud automation. What You Will Learn Gain the fundamentals of Google's automation-enabling services See an architecture overview for Google Cloud Deployment Manager, Spinnaker, Tekton, and Jenkins Implement automation for infrastructure and application use cases Automate microservices-based applications running on GKE Enable Google Cloud Deployment Manager, Spinnaker, Tekton, and Jenkins Who This Book Is For Developers, architects, and administrators who want to learn about Google cloud automation.

Discover methodologies and best practices for getting started with Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE). This book helps you understand how GKE provides a fully managed environment to deploy and operate containerized applications on Google Cloud infrastructure. You will see how Kubernetes makes it easier for users to manage clusters and the container ecosystem. And you will get detailed guidance on deploying and managing applications, handling administration of container clusters, managing policies, and monitoring cluster resources. You will learn how to operate the GKE environment through the GUI-based Google Cloud console and the "gcloud" command line interface. The book starts with an introduction to GKE and associated services. The authors provide hands-on examples to set up Container Registry and GKE Cluster, and you will follow through an application deployment on GKE. Later chapters focus on securing your GCP GKE environment, GKE monitoring and dashboarding, and CI/CD automation. All of the code presented in the book is provided in the form of scripts, which allow you to try out the examples and extend them in interesting ways. What You Will Learn Understand the main container services in GCP (Google Container Registry, Google Kubernetes Engine, Kubernetes Engine, Management Services) Perform hands-on steps to deploy, secure, scale, monitor, and automate your containerized environment Deploy a sample microservices application on GKE Deploy monitoring for your GKE environment Use DevOps automation in the CI/CD pipeline and integrate it with GKE Who This Book Is For Architects, developers, and DevOps engineers who want to learn Google Kubernetes Engine

Discover the methodologies and best practices for getting started with container services monitoring using Prometheus, AppDynamics, and Dynatrace. The book begins with the basics of working with the containerization and microservices architecture while establishing the need for monitoring and management technologies. You'll go through hands-on deployment, configuration, and best practices for Prometheus. Next, you'll delve deeper into monitoring of container ecosystems for availability, performance, and logs, and then cover the reporting capabilities of Prometheus. Further, you'll move on to advanced topics of extending Prometheus including how to develop new use cases and scenarios. You'll then use enterprise tools such as AppDynamics and Wavefront to discover deeper application monitoring best practices. You'll conclude with fully automated deployment of the monitoring and management platforms integrated with the container ecosystem using infrastructure-as -code tools such as Jenkins, Ansible and Terraform. The book provides sample code and best practices for you to look at container monitoring from a holistic viewpoint. This book is a good starting point for developers, architects, and administrators who want to learn about monitoring and management of cloud native and microservices containerized applications. What You Will Learn Examine the fundamentals of container monitoring Get an overview of the architecture for Prometheus and Alert Manager Enable Prometheus monitoring for containers Monitor containers using Wavefront Use the guidelines on container monitoring with enterprise solutions AppDynamics and Wavefront Who This Book Is For Software developers, system administrators, and DevOps engineers working for enterprise customers who want to use monitoring solutions for their container ecosystems.
