In this sample, you'll see how to run a prime number generator container as a job in Batch service. You will automate the lifecycle of the Batch job using Workflows.
The Google Batch service provides an end to end fully-managed batch service, which allows you to schedule, queue, and execute jobs on Google compute instances. The service provisions resources, manages capacity and allows batch workloads to run at scale.
We recommend creating a new project for this tutorial so that it doesn't affect any other existing projects you might have on Google Cloud. It is also easier to clean up resources when you finish.
To create a new project, run:
gcloud projects create [PROJECT_ID]
Make sure your project id is set in gcloud:
gcloud config set project [PROJECT_ID]Make sure that billing is enabled for your Cloud project. Learn how to check if billing is enabled on a project.
In this sample, you will schedule a batch job to run a prime number generator container. You can see the code of the container in PrimeGenService folder.
Run setup.sh to enable required services, create a service acount for the right roles for Workflows and build and save the container.
See workflow.yaml for the workflow definition. It creates a batch job with the container, waits for the job to complete and then deletes the job.
Run test.sh to deploy and then execute the workflow. You can check the result of the workflow execution in Google Cloud console.
To delete the Workflow, run the gcloud workflows delete command:
gcloud workflows delete batch-primegen --location=us-central1
setup.sh also creates a container repository. To delete this, run:
gcloud artifacts repositories delete container --location=us-central1
Cloud Build uses Cloud Storage to store resources for builds. See the Cloud Storage documentation to learn how to delete storage buckets.
To delete the project, run the gcloud projects delete command:
gcloud projects delete [PROJECT_ID]
