Deploy a container on a new VM instance on Google Cloud

Question

How should I go about in deploying a container on a new instance of a VM provisioned on the google cloud?

Answer 1

You can deploy a container on a new VM instance by using the Google Cloud Platform Console or the gcloud command-line tool.

The following example deploys a container from a Google-provided Nginx Docker image, https://gcr.io/cloud-marketplace/google/nginx1:latest, to a VM instance. 

To use another Docker image, specify your desired image instead in the examples below.

1. Go to the VM instances page.

2. Click the Create instance button to create a new instance.

3. Under the Container section, check Deploy container image.

4. Specify a container image name under Container image and configure options to run the container if desired.
   For example, you can specify gcr.io/cloud-marketplace/google/nginx1:latest for the container image.

5. Click Create.
