This page shows how to create Kubernetes Services in aGoogle Kubernetes Engine (GKE) cluster. For an explanation of the Service conceptand a discussion of the various types of Services, seeService.
Introduction
The idea of aService is to group a set of Pod endpoints into a single resource.You can configure various ways to access the grouping. By default, you get astable cluster IP address that clients inside the cluster can use to contactPods in the Service. A client sends a request to the stable IP address, and therequest is routed to one of the Pods in the Service.
There are five types of Services:
- ClusterIP (default)
- NodePort
- LoadBalancer
- ExternalName
- Headless
Autopilot clusters are public by default. If you opt for aprivateAutopilot cluster, you must configure Cloud NATto make outbound internet connections, for example pulling images from DockerHub.
This topic has several exercises. In each exercise, you create a Deployment andexpose its Pods by creating a Service. Then you send an HTTP request to theService.
Before you begin
Before you start, make sure you have performed the following tasks:
- Enable the Google Kubernetes Engine API. Enable Google Kubernetes Engine API
- If you want to use the Google Cloud CLI for this task, install and then initialize the gcloud CLI.
Creating a Service of type ClusterIP
In this section, you create a Service of typeClusterIP.
kubectl apply
Here is a manifest for a Deployment:
apiVersion: apps/v1kind: Deploymentmetadata: name: my-deploymentspec: selector: matchLabels: app: metrics department: sales replicas: 3 template: metadata: labels: app: metrics department: sales spec: containers: - name: hello image: "us-docker.pkg.dev/google-samples/containers/gke/hello-app:2.0"
Copy the manifest to a file named my-deployment.yaml
, and create theDeployment:
kubectl apply -f my-deployment.yaml
Verify that three Pods are running:
kubectl get pods
The output shows three running Pods:
NAME READY STATUS RESTARTS AGEmy-deployment-dbd86c8c4-h5wsf 1/1 Running 0 7smy-deployment-dbd86c8c4-qfw22 1/1 Running 0 7smy-deployment-dbd86c8c4-wt4s6 1/1 Running 0 7s
Here is a manifest for a Service of type ClusterIP
:
apiVersion: v1kind: Servicemetadata: name: my-cip-servicespec: type: ClusterIP # Uncomment the below line to create a Headless Service # clusterIP: None selector: app: metrics department: sales ports: - protocol: TCP port: 80 targetPort: 8080
The Service has a selector that specifies two labels:
app: metrics
department: sales
Each Pod in the Deployment that you created previously has those two labels.So the Pods in the Deployment will become members of this Service.
Copy the manifest to a file named my-cip-service.yaml
, and create theService:
kubectl apply -f my-cip-service.yaml
Wait a moment for Kubernetes to assign a stable internal address to theService, and then view the Service:
kubectl get service my-cip-service --output yaml
The output shows a value for clusterIP
:
spec: clusterIP: 10.59.241.241
Make a note of your clusterIP
value for later.
Console
Create a Deployment
Go to the Workloads page in the Google Cloud console.
Go to Workloads
Click add_box Deploy.
Under Container, select Existing container image.
For Image path, enter
us-docker.pkg.dev/google-samples/containers/gke/hello-app:2.0
Click Done, then click Continue.

my-deployment
.Under Labels, create the following labels:
- Key:
app
and Value:metrics
- Key:
department
and Value:sales
- Key:
Under Cluster, choose the cluster in which you want to create the Deployment.
Click Deploy.
When your Deployment is ready, the Deployment details page opens.Under Managed pods, you can see that your Deployment has one or morerunning Pods.
(Video) Google Kubernetes Engine - Create GKE Cluster and Deploy App
Create a Service to expose your Deployment
- On the Deployment details page, click listActions > Expose.
In the Expose dialog, under Port mapping, set the following values:
- Port:
80
- Target port:
8080
- Protocol:
TCP
- Port:
From the Service type drop-down list, select Cluster IP.
Click Expose.
When your Service is ready, the Service details page opens, and youcan see details about your Service. Under Cluster IP, make a note ofthe IP address that Kubernetes assigned to your Service. This is theIP address that internal clients can use to call the Service.
Accessing your Service
List your running Pods:
kubectl get pods
In the output, copy one of the Pod names that begins with my-deployment
.
NAME READY STATUS RESTARTS AGEmy-deployment-dbd86c8c4-h5wsf 1/1 Running 0 2m51s
Get a shell into one of your running containers:
kubectl exec -it POD_NAME -- sh
Replace POD_NAME
with the name of one of the Pods inmy-deployment
.
In your shell, install curl
:
apk add --no-cache curl
In the container, make a request to your Service by using your cluster IPaddress and port 80. Notice that 80 is the value of the port
field of yourService. This is the port that you use as a client of the Service.
curl CLUSTER_IP:80
Replace CLUSTER_IP
with the value of clusterIP
in yourService.
Your request is forwarded to one of the member Pods on TCP port 8080, which isthe value of the targetPort
field. Note that each of the Service's member Podsmust have a container listening on port 8080.
The response shows the output of hello-app
:
Hello, world!Version: 2.0.0Hostname: my-deployment-dbd86c8c4-h5wsf
To exit the shell to your container, enter exit
.
Creating a Service of type NodePort
In this section, you create a Service of typeNodePort.
kubectl apply
Here is a manifest for a Deployment:
apiVersion: apps/v1kind: Deploymentmetadata: name: my-deployment-50000spec: selector: matchLabels: app: metrics department: engineering replicas: 3 template: metadata: labels: app: metrics department: engineering spec: containers: - name: hello image: "us-docker.pkg.dev/google-samples/containers/gke/hello-app:2.0" env: - name: "PORT" value: "50000"
Notice the env
object in the manifest. The env
object specifies that thePORT
environment variable for the running container will have a value of50000
. The hello-app
application listens on the port specified by thePORT
environment variable. So in this exercise, you are telling thecontainer to listen on port 50000.
Copy the manifest to a file named my-deployment-50000.yaml
, and create theDeployment:
kubectl apply -f my-deployment-50000.yaml
Verify that three Pods are running:
kubectl get pods
Here is a manifest for a Service of type NodePort:
apiVersion: v1kind: Servicemetadata: name: my-np-servicespec: type: NodePort selector: app: metrics department: engineering ports: - protocol: TCP port: 80 targetPort: 50000
Copy the manifest to a file named my-np-service.yaml
, and create theService:
kubectl apply -f my-np-service.yaml
View the Service:
kubectl get service my-np-service --output yaml
The output shows a nodePort
value:
... spec: ... ports: - nodePort: 30876 port: 80 protocol: TCP targetPort: 50000 selector: app: metrics department: engineering sessionAffinity: None type: NodePort...
If the nodes in your cluster have external IP addresses, find the externalIP address of one of your nodes:
kubectl get nodes --output wide
The output shows the external IP addresses of your nodes:
NAME STATUS ROLES AGE VERSION EXTERNAL-IPgke-svc-... Ready none 1h v1.9.7-gke.6 203.0.113.1
Not all clusters have external IP addresses for nodes. For example,the nodes inprivate clustersdo not have external IP addresses.
Create a firewall rule to allow TCP traffic on your node port:
gcloud compute firewall-rules create test-node-port \ --allow tcp:NODE_PORT
Replace NODE_PORT
with the value of the nodePort
field of your Service.
Console

The output is similar to the following:
Hello, world!Version: 2.0.0Hostname: my-deployment-50000-6fb75d85c9-g8c4f
Creating a Service of type LoadBalancer
In this section, you create a Service of typeLoadBalancer.
kubectl apply
Here is a manifest for a Deployment:
apiVersion: apps/v1kind: Deploymentmetadata: name: my-deployment-50001spec: selector: matchLabels: app: products department: sales replicas: 3 template: metadata: labels: app: products department: sales spec: containers: - name: hello image: "us-docker.pkg.dev/google-samples/containers/gke/hello-app:2.0" env: - name: "PORT" value: "50001"
Notice that the containers in this Deployment will listen on port 50001.
Copy the manifest to a file named my-deployment-50001.yaml
, and create theDeployment:
kubectl apply -f my-deployment-50001.yaml
Verify that three Pods are running:
kubectl get pods
Here is a manifest for a Service of type LoadBalancer
:
apiVersion: v1kind: Servicemetadata: name: my-lb-servicespec: type: LoadBalancer selector: app: products department: sales ports: - protocol: TCP port: 60000 targetPort: 50001
Copy the manifest to a file named my-lb-service.yaml,
and create theService:
kubectl apply -f my-lb-service.yaml
When you create a Service of type LoadBalancer
, a Google Cloudcontroller wakes up and configures anetwork load balancer.Wait a minute for the controller to configure the network load balancer andgenerate a stable IP address.
View the Service:
kubectl get service my-lb-service --output yaml
The output shows a stable external IP address under loadBalancer:ingress
:
...spec: ... ports: - ... port: 60000 protocol: TCP targetPort: 50001 selector: app: products department: sales sessionAffinity: None type: LoadBalancerstatus: loadBalancer: ingress: - ip: 203.0.113.10

LOAD_BALANCER_ADDRESS:60000
Replace LOAD_BALANCER_ADDRESS
with the external IPaddress of your load balancer.
The response shows the output of hello-app
:
Hello, world!Version: 2.0.0Hostname: my-deployment-50001-68bb7dfb4b-prvct
Notice that the value of port
in a Service is arbitrary. The precedingexample demonstrates this by using a port
value of 60000.
Creating a Service of type ExternalName
In this section, you create a Service of typeExternalName.
A Service of type ExternalName
provides an internal alias for an external DNSname. Internal clients make requests using the internal DNS name, and therequests are redirected to the external name.
Here is a manifest for a Service of type ExternalName
:
apiVersion: v1kind: Servicemetadata: name: my-xn-servicespec: type: ExternalName externalName: example.com
In the preceding example, the DNS name ismy-xn-service.default.svc.cluster.local. When an internal client makes a requestto my-xn-service.default.svc.cluster.local, the request gets redirected toexample.com.
Using kubectl expose
to create a Service
As an alternative to writing a Service manifest, you can create a Serviceby using kubectl expose
to expose a Deployment.
To expose my-deployment
, shown earlier in this topic, you could enter thiscommand:
kubectl expose deployment my-deployment --name my-cip-service \ --type ClusterIP --protocol TCP --port 80 --target-port 8080
