A Domino install can’t be hosted on a subdomain of another Domino install. For example, if you have Domino deployed at data-science.example.com, you can’t deploy another instance of Domino at acme.data-science.example.com.
Use this topic to provision infrastructure with Google Cloud Platform (GCP). After the infrastructure is in place, you can deploy Domino on Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE).

​
Orchestrate the installation

  1. In the GCP console, go to Identity and Access Management services (IAM) and select Include Google-provided role grants. Filter by Kubernetes Engine Service Agent and click the pencil icon. A screenshot of the GCP console, with the edit icon highlighted in red
  2. Add the Cloud KMS CryptoKey Encrypter/Decrypter role to the service principal. A screenshot of the edit permissions page, with the role text field highlighted in red

Provision your infrastructure with Domino’s Terraform module

Domino recommends that you use our public-facing GCP-specific Reference Terraform module. You can also reference this module to manually provision the environment and infrastructure.
  1. Open the main.tf file then go to the gke_cluster module, and edit the attributes as follow:
    • gke_cluster.project: Name of the project where the cluster will be deployed.
    • gke_cluster.deploy_id: Name of the cluster to create.
    • gke_cluster.location: Location of the cluster.
    • gke_cluster.master_authorized_networks_config.cidr_block: External network that can access Kubernetes master through HTTPS. Must be specified in Classless Inter-Domain Routing (CIDR) notation.
    • gke_cluster.node_pool_overrides.gpu.node_locations: Location of the GPU nodes.
  2. To initialize the modules, run the following command in the same folder as main.tf: 
    gcloud init
gcloud auth application-default login
terraform init
  3. To start the infrastructure deployment, run the following commands (you can ignore deprecation warnings): 
    terraform plan -out=terraform.plan
terraform apply terraform.plan
Save the Terraform output from the previous commands because you’ll need it to complete the Domino deployment.
