GKE Reliability Skill

This skill provides workflows for configuring your GKE cluster and workloads for high availability and reliability.

Workflows

1. Verify Cluster High Availability

Check if the cluster is regional or has multi-zonal node pools.

Command:

gcloud container clusters describe <cluster-name> --region <region> --format="json(location, locations)"

If location is a region (e.g., us-central1), the control plane is regional. If locations has multiple entries, nodes are spread across multiple zones.
