Architecting with Google Cloud Platform: Infrastructure

Overview

Duration: 3 days

This instructor-led class introduces participants to the comprehensive and flexible infrastructure and platform services provided by Google Cloud Platform. Through a combination of presentations, demos, and hands-on labs, participants explore and deploy solution elements, including infrastructure components such as networks, systems and applications services. This course also covers deploying practical solutions including securely interconnecting networks, customer-supplied encryption keys, security and access management, quotas and billing, and resource monitoring.

Objectives

This course teaches participants the following skills:

  • Consider the entire range of Google Cloud Platform technologies in their plans.
  • Learn methods to develop, implement, and deploy solutions.
  • Distinguish between features of similar or related products and technologies.
  • Recognize a wide variety of solution domains, use cases, and applications.
  • Develop essential skills for managing and administering solutions.
  • Develop knowledge of solution patterns — methods, technologies, and designs that are used to implement security, scalability, high availability, and other desired qualities.
