Overview

This article will cover the steps needed to deploy a Decisions container onto Google Cloud Platform (GCP)

Login to the GCP portal.
Search for compute engine in the Google Cloud console.
Once the Compute Engine page is brought up, select Create Instance
In the container section, select Deploy Container.
Specify the container image. It is recommended that decisionscore/platform:latest is used, as this will pull the most recently updated version of the container.
Under the Environment Variables section, define both the required and any optional variables for the container.
Add a volume by selecting the volume type. The mount paths should be the following:

/filestorage or as defined in the DECISIONS_FILESTORAGELOCALTION environment variable
/Logs - used for logging the container.
Once finished, click Create to create the container.
