- QUOTE: The Google Cloud gcloud CLI is a command-line interface tool that enables users to interact with Google Cloud services and manage their Google Cloud resources. It is part of the Google Cloud SDK (Software Development Kit) and provides commands for a wide range of tasks, including creating and configuring cloud resources such as compute instances, storage buckets, and databases; deploying applications; and managing billing and permissions. The gcloud CLI supports both interactive and scriptable commands, making it suitable for both manual administration and automated, programmatic use.
Developers, system administrators, and DevOps professionals commonly use the gcloud CLI to efficiently manage their cloud infrastructure. It is available for Windows, macOS, and Linux operating systems and can be easily installed and updated as part of the Google Cloud SDK. The gcloud tool is highly extensible with support for additional components and plugins, allowing users to customize their environment according to their specific needs. Moreover, because the gcloud CLI reduces the need for the Google Cloud Console's graphical user interface, it can be a powerful asset for streamlining workflows and enabling rapid deployment and management of cloud resources.
