# Google Cloud Platform

## QuickStart with Container-optimized Google Compute Engine images

1. Go to [Google Cloud Console][1] and create a new Cloud Project with
   [Compute Engine enabled][2]

2. Download and configure the [Google Cloud SDK][3] to use your
   project with the following commands:

        $ curl https://sdk.cloud.google.com | bash
        $ gcloud auth login
        $ gcloud config set project <google-cloud-project-id>

3. Start a new instance using the latest [Container-optimized image][4]:
   (select a zone close to you and the desired instance size)

        $ gcloud compute instances create docker-playground \
          --image https://www.googleapis.com/compute/v1/projects/google-containers/global/images/container-vm-v20140522 \
          --zone us-central1-a \
          --machine-type f1-micro

4. Connect to the instance using SSH:

        $ gcloud compute ssh --zone us-central1-a docker-playground
        docker-playground:~$ sudo docker run busybox echo 'docker on GCE \o/'
        docker on GCE \o/
