Selecting a Bastion Hardware Instance Type
The type of host to use for your bastion depends on your deployment plans. Google offers a detailed list from their general-purpose machine family, with hardware specifications for each. Select and prepare a host that adapts to your CPU, memory, storage, and pricing needs.
For the examples here, we will use a e2.medium
as the bastion instance type. What follows are a few example configuration tasks and the OMT bootstrap install. Your own environment configuration needs might differ.
Once you've selected a bastion host, record its type in the Google Cloud worksheet.
