COURSE AGENDA

Cloud Foundations

Understand why Google Cloud is a leader in the cloud space, offering unique benefits for businesses.
Learn how Google Cloud’s infrastructure is organized globally across points of presence (PoPs), data centers, regions, and zones to ensure high availability and reliability.
Understand the differences between Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) and Platform as a Service (PaaS), and how each can be leveraged to meet specific business needs.

Resource Management & Access Control

Learn to organize Google Cloud projects for optimal resource management, security, and scalability.
Master Identity and Access Management (IAM) to implement robust security and access controls across your cloud environment.
Explore how to manage resources using the Console, CLI, APIs, and deploy third-party solutions through Google Cloud Marketplace.

Computing & Networking Essentials

Learn to design and deploy VPCs, subnets, and firewall rules for secure communication and high availability across cloud resources.
Understand how to configure Google Compute Engine for scalable, high-performance virtual machines and create resilient cloud architectures.
Apply your skills by deploying cloud infrastructure, utilizing VPC configurations, load balancing, and autoscaling to ensure optimal performance.

Storage Solutions

Understand and choose the right storage solutions (Cloud Storage, Persistent Disks) based on performance and cost needs.
Learn about Cloud Storage classes (Standard, Nearline, Coldline, Archive) and how to apply them for cost-effective data management.
Explore database options (Cloud SQL, Bigtable, Firestore) and learn to integrate them with Cloud Storage for seamless application data management.

Container Orchestration

Understand the basics of containers, how they work, and how they can be used to package and deploy applications.
Dive into Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE) and learn how it simplifies the deployment, management, and scaling of containerized applications.

Modern Application Development

Learn how to use Cloud Run to deploy serverless applications, automatically scaling in response to traffic.
Explore how to use Cloud Functions to build event-driven, serverless applications without managing servers.
Apply your knowledge to deploy a containerized application on Google Cloud, leveraging GKE and Cloud Run for scalability and efficiency.
