How to expose your deployments to outside the word using LoadBalancer or NodePort

syntax:

kubectl expose deployment <deployment name> --port=80 --target-port=80 --type=LoadBalancer

ex:

kubectl expose deployment myweb --port=80 --target-port=80 --type=LoadBalancer

In backend GCP will create a Network Load Balancer: you can also check in console

points to remember:

below commands are deprecated
