A prospect was blocked by the existing GKE install scripts which use Docker-based node images. e.g., ubuntu and cos.
The latest versions of Kubernetes require
containerd
-based node images, so theimage-type
must change to eitherubuntu_containerd
orcos_containerd
I also consolidated the machine-type overview, and changed to a more economical e2-standard-4 with nodes with links to general-purpose machine-type docs on Google Cloud.
Reference article (which I linked to in the docs) about the
containerd
