>1. you can use docker file from ignite kubernetus module: https://github.com/apache/ignite/blob/7b9cd0711b2ab16b8635cdaa588bfb3c03915f3c/modules/kubernetes/config/Dockerfile
it's open source, all artifacs are in the module, so you it to build and host image locally. >2. You use too old documentation, please use this one: https://apacheignite.readme.io/v2.7/docs/kubernetes-deployment it has easy step by set instruction for GCE. >3. no, Ignition.setClientMode(true) says to create client node instead of the server, however, it will be a thick client. Please refer to the following doc, to create thin client properly: https://apacheignite.readme.io/v2.7/docs/java-thin-client Thanks, Mike. -- Sent from: http://apache-ignite-users.70518.x6.nabble.com/
