GCP GKE Setup & Configuration

Google Kubernetes Engine is widely considered the best managed Kubernetes offering — GKE Autopilot eliminates node management entirely, and Standard mode gives you full control. We provision GKE clusters with Workload Identity, VPC-native networking, binary authorization, and GitOps-based deployment workflows.

We implement, you ship. Async, documented, done in days.

Start a Brief

What We Deliver

A production-ready GKE cluster (Autopilot or Standard) with Workload Identity for IAM integration, VPC-native networking with alias IPs, private cluster configuration, Gateway API or ingress-nginx for HTTP routing, cert-manager for TLS, external-dns for Cloud DNS integration, and a GitOps pipeline (ArgoCD or FluxCD) for deployments.

Autopilot vs Standard

GKE Autopilot manages nodes automatically — you define pods and Google handles the rest, including security patching, bin-packing, and scaling. Standard mode gives you control over node pools, machine types, and GPU scheduling. We recommend Autopilot for most workloads and Standard when you need specific machine types, local SSDs, or GPU nodes.

Workload Identity & Security

Workload Identity maps Kubernetes service accounts to GCP service accounts, eliminating the need for JSON key files. Pod Security Standards enforce container runtime restrictions. Binary Authorization ensures only signed container images run in your cluster. GKE Sandbox (gVisor) provides kernel-level isolation for untrusted workloads.

Networking

VPC-native clusters use alias IP ranges for pod and service addressing, enabling direct communication with other GCP services without NAT. Private clusters keep nodes off the public internet. Cloud NAT provides outbound internet access. Gateway API or ingress-nginx routes HTTP traffic with automatic TLS via cert-manager and Let's Encrypt.

Multi-Cluster & Multi-Region

For high-availability requirements, we configure multi-cluster deployments across GCP regions with Multi Cluster Ingress for global load balancing. Config Sync keeps cluster configurations consistent. Anthos Service Mesh provides cross-cluster service discovery and traffic management.
