Course Description

      • This two-day instructor-led class gives participants broad study of networking options on Google Cloud Platform. Through a combination of presentations, demonstrations, and hands-on labs, participants explore and deploy GCP networking technologies, such as Google Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) networks, subnets, firewalls; interconnection among networks; load balancing; Cloud DNS; Cloud CDN; Cloud NAT. The course will also cover common network design patterns and automated deployment using Deployment Manager or Terraform.

Objectives

      • This course teaches participants the following skills:
      • Understand how software containers work Understand the architecture of Kubernetes
      • Understand the architecture of Google Cloud Platform Understand how pod networking works in Kubernetes Engine
      • Create and manage Kubernetes Engine clusters using the GCP Console and gcloud/ kubectl commands Launch, roll back and expose jobs in Kubernetes
      • Manage access control using Kubernetes RBAC and Google Cloud IAM Managing pod security policies and network policies Using Secrets and ConfigMaps to isolate security credentials and configuration artifacts
      • Choose among and use Google Cloud Platform storage options: Google Cloud Storage, Google Cloud SQL, Google Cloud Bigtable, and Google Cloud Datastore

Audience

      • This class is intended for network engineers and network admins that are either using Google Cloud Platform or are planning to do so. The class is also for individuals that want to be exposed to software-defined networking solutions in the cloud.

Prerequisites

      • Familiarity with the Linux command line, web servers, and text editors.
