1 CMD in 6 mins to build a ready-to-use Kasten demo lab on GKE cluster (GKE+Postgresql+K10).

I just want to build a GKE Cluster to play with the various Data Management capabilities e.g. Backup/Restore, Disaster Recovery and Application Mobility. It is challenging to create a GKE cluster from Google Cloud if you are not familiar to it. After the GKE Cluster is up running, we still need to install Kasten, create a sample DB, create policies etc.. The whole process is not that simple.

This script based automation allows you to build a ready-to-use Kasten K10 demo environment running on GKE in about 6 minutes. For simplicity and cost optimization, the GKE cluster will have only one worker node and be built in the default vpc using the default subnet. This is bash shell based scripts which has been tested on Cloud Shell. Linux or MacOS terminal has not been tested though it might work as well.

If you already have a GKE cluster running, you only need 3 minutes to protect containers on GKE cluster by k10-deploy.sh.

3. Create gcloud service account first

cd gke-k10;./createsa.sh

4. Optionally, you can customize the clustername, machine-type, zone, region, bucketname

vi setenv.sh
