+
+.. _googlequickstart:
+
+`Compute Engine <https://developers.google.com/compute>`_ QuickStart for `Debian <https://www.debian.org>`_
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+1. Go to `Google Cloud Console <https://cloud.google.com/console>`_ and create a new Cloud Project with billing enabled.
+
+2. Download and configure the `Google Cloud SDK <https://developers.google.com/cloud/sdk/>`_ to use your project with the following commands:
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+    $ curl https://dl.google.com/dl/cloudsdk/release/install_google_cloud_sdk.bash | bash
+    $ gcloud auth login
+    Enter a cloud project id (or leave blank to not set): <google-cloud-project-id>
+
+3. Start a new instance, select a zone close to you and the desired instance size:
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+    $ gcutil addinstance docker-playground --image=backports-debian-7
+    1: europe-west1-a
+    ...
+    4: us-central1-b
+    >>> <zone-index>
+    1: machineTypes/n1-standard-1
+    ...
+    12: machineTypes/g1-small
+    >>> <machine-type-index>
+
+4. Connect to the instance using SSH:
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+    $ gcutil ssh docker-playground
+    docker-playground:~$ 
+
+5. Enable IP forwarding:
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+    docker-playground:~$ echo net.ipv4.ip_forward=1 | sudo tee /etc/sysctl.d/99-docker.conf 
+    docker-playground:~$ sudo sysctl --system
+
+6. Install the latest Docker release and configure it to start when the instance boots:
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+    docker-playground:~$ curl get.docker.io | bash
+    docker-playground:~$ sudo update-rc.d docker defaults
+
+7. Start a new container:
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+    docker-playground:~$ sudo docker run busybox echo 'docker on GCE \o/'
+    docker on GCE \o/
