Course Description

  • In this course, application developers learn how to design, develop, and deploy applications that seamlessly integrate components from the Google Cloud ecosystem. Through a combination of presentations, demos, and hands-on labs, participants learn how to use GCP services and pre-trained machine learning APIs to build secure, scalable, and intelligent cloud-native applications.

Objectives

  • Application developers who want to build cloud-native applications or redesign existing applications that will run on Google Cloud Platform
  • This course teaches participants the following skills:
  • Use best practices for application development.
  • Choose the appropriate data storage option for application data.
  • Implement federated identity management.
  • Develop loosely coupled application components or microservices.
  • Integrate application components and data sources.
  • Debug, trace, and monitor applications.
  • Perform repeatable deployments with containers and deployment services.
  • Choose the appropriate application runtime environment; use Google Container.
  • Engine as a runtime environment and later switch to a no-ops solution with Google App Engine Flex.

Audience

This class is intended for the following:

  • Application developers who want to build cloud-native applications or redesign existing applications that will run on Google Cloud Platform
