Architecting with Google Cloud: Design and Process (AGCP-DP)

 

Course Overview

This​ ​two-day​ ​instructor-led​ ​training class​ ​equips​ ​students​ ​to​ ​build​ ​highly​ ​reliable​ ​and​ ​efficient​ ​solutions​ ​on​ ​Google​ ​Cloud Platform,​ ​using​ ​proven​ ​design​ ​patterns​ ​and​ ​the​ ​principles​ ​of​ ​Google​ ​Site​ ​Reliability​ ​Engineering​ ​(SRE).​ ​It​ ​is​ ​a continuation​ ​of​ ​the​ ​​Architecting​ ​with​ ​Google​ ​Cloud​ ​Platform:​ ​Infrastructure​​ ​course​ ​and​ ​assumes​ ​hands-on experience​ ​with​ ​the​ ​technologies​ ​covered​ ​in​ ​that​ ​course.

Through​ ​a​ ​combination​ ​of​ ​presentations,​ ​demos,​ ​and​ ​hands-on​ ​labs,​ ​participants​ ​learn​ ​to​ ​design​ ​GCP​ ​deployments that​ ​are​ ​highly​ ​reliable​ ​and​ ​secure;​ ​and​ ​how​ ​to​ ​operate​ ​GCP​ ​deployments​ ​in​ ​a​ ​highly​ ​available​ ​and​ ​cost-effective manner.
