In order to be a competent practitioner of Google Cloud technologies, you will need to get up close and personal with the various tools used to create a DevOps infrastructure. In this course, you will discover the different components of the Google Cloud Platform (GCP). Begin by exploring the App Engine, Compute Engine, and Cloud VMware Engine. Then, learn how to enable and manage data storage such as Cloud Storage, Filestore, and databases such as Firebase, Bigtable, Datastore, and Firestore. You will delve into the mechanics of cloud networking using a content delivery network (CDN) and Cloud Router. Finally, investigate automation tools such as Cloud Build, as well as tools for monitoring and logging using Cloud Operations. After completing this course, you'll be able to implement the GCP elements that support a DevOps framework

You can't build a house without tools and materials. Similarly, you can't build a DevOps infrastructure without the tools and materials needed to support developer needs. In this course, learn about the basics of the Google Cloud Platform (GCP). Explore how GCP compares to other cloud platforms and learn about different elements of the platform, such as computing, storage, and networking. Next, investigate tools and services like identity management, databases, analytics, and artificial intelligence. Finally, examine the relationships between the GCP and container technologies such as Docker, clustering container technologies such as Kubernetes, and orchestration technologies such as Jenkins. Upon completion, you'll be able to identify how elements of Google Cloud Platform (GCP) support a DevOps framework.
