If you want to operate clusters using a managed Kubernetes service in GCP, use Google Kubernetes Engine, or GKE.
Create a GKE cluster using a command such as:
gcloud container clusters create hello-cluster --num-nodes=1
As on other clouds, the setup process may take a bit of time. Once it’s done, you can interact with your cluster using kubectl.
GKE is similar to AKS and EKS in most ways. In some respects, GKE has more automation built in by default; for example, it autoscales nodes automatically, whereas with EKS, you have to set up autoscaling yourself. GKE pricing is also comparable to that of EKS and AKS; GKE has a cluster management fee of $0.10 per hour.
