This quickstart guide helps you get started running Pinot on Google Cloud Platform (GCP).

Running on GCP

In this quickstart guide, you will set up a Kubernetes Cluster on Google Kubernetes Engine(GKE)

1. Tooling Installation

1.1 Install Kubectl

Follow this link (https://kubernetes.io/docs/tasks/tools/install-kubectl) to install kubectl.

For Mac users

brew install kubernetes-cli

Check kubectl version after installation.

kubectl version

{% hint style="info" %} Quickstart scripts are tested under kubectl client version v1.16.3 and server version v1.13.12 {% endhint %}

1.2 Install Helm

Follow this link (https://helm.sh/docs/using_helm/#installing-helm) to install helm.

For Mac users

brew install kubernetes-helm

Check helm version after installation.

helm version

{% hint style="info" %} This quickstart provides helm supports for helm v3.0.0 and v2.12.1. Choose the script based on your helm version. {% endhint %}

1.3 Install Google Cloud SDK

To install Google Cloud SDK, see Install the gcloud CLI

1.3.1 For Mac users

  • Install Google Cloud SDK
curl https://sdk.cloud.google.com | bash

Restart your shell

exec -l $SHELL

2. (Optional) Initialize Google Cloud Environment

gcloud init

3. (Optional) Create a Kubernetes cluster(GKE) in Google Cloud

This script will create a 3 node cluster named pinot-quickstart in us-west1-b with n1-standard-2 machines for demo purposes.

Modify the parameters in the following example command with your gcloud details:

GCLOUD_PROJECT=[your gcloud project name]
GCLOUD_ZONE=us-west1-b
GCLOUD_CLUSTER=pinot-quickstart
GCLOUD_MACHINE_TYPE=n1-standard-2
GCLOUD_NUM_NODES=3
gcloud container clusters create ${GCLOUD_CLUSTER} \
  --num-nodes=${GCLOUD_NUM_NODES} \
  --machine-type=${GCLOUD_MACHINE_TYPE} \
  --zone=${GCLOUD_ZONE} \
  --project=${GCLOUD_PROJECT}

Use the following command do monitor cluster status:

gcloud compute instances list

Once the cluster is in RUNNING status, it's ready to be used.

4. Connect to an existing cluster

Run the following command to get the credential for the cluster pinot-quickstart that you just created:

GCLOUD_PROJECT=[your gcloud project name]
GCLOUD_ZONE=us-west1-b
GCLOUD_CLUSTER=pinot-quickstart
gcloud container clusters get-credentials ${GCLOUD_CLUSTER} --zone ${GCLOUD_ZONE} --project ${GCLOUD_PROJECT}

To verify the connection, run the following:

kubectl get nodes

5. Pinot quickstart

Follow this Kubernetes quickstart to deploy your Pinot demo.

6. Delete a Kubernetes Cluster

GCLOUD_ZONE=us-west1-b
gcloud container clusters delete pinot-quickstart --zone=${GCLOUD_ZONE}
