Session 2 - Deploy an app to a GKE Cluster with Domain Mapping from AWS​

Based on: https://cloud.google.com/kubernetes-engine/docs/deploy-app-cluster

gcloud config list
export PID=$(gcloud config get-value project) 

export REG=us-west1

For domain mapping add the RECS in AWS Hosted Sites under Route 59, as per cloud run docs (easy setup).
