Deploying a Dockerized Application With Kubernetes on Google Cloud Platform

Abstract

The fast development of IoT networks and the integration of these scenarios in everyday life has also led to great diversity of SD-WAN solutions. With the advent of 5G, more and more devices will be connected, which requires careful monitoring especially in crucial situations such as transport scenarios. This paper presents the implementation of a web application based on microservices, each of them running in a dedicated Docker container, which gathers information in real-time from two vehicles. These standalone executable packages of software are orchestrated by Kubernetes and hosted on Google Cloud Platform. The data used during the execution of the project is stored into a Cloud SQL instance. All the necessary resources in order to build the project can be monitored with Stackdriver.
