Networking in Google cloud is a 6 part course series. Welcome to the first course of our six part course series, Networking in Google Cloud: Fundamentals. This course provides a comprehensive overview of core networking concepts, including networking fundamentals, virtual private clouds (VPCs), and the sharing of VPC networks. Additionally, the course covers network logging and monitoring techniques.
Google Cloud Fundamentals: Core Infrastructure introduces important concepts and terminology for working with Google Cloud. Through videos and hands-on labs, this course presents and compares many of Google Cloud's computing and storage services, along with important resource and policy management tools.
Complete the introductory Monitor and Log with Google Cloud Observability skill badge course to demonstrate skills in the following: monitoring virtual machines in Compute Engine, utilizing Cloud Monitoring for multi-project oversight, extending monitoring and logging capabilities to Cloud Functions, creating and sending custom application metrics, and configuring Cloud Monitoring alerts based on custom metrics.
The Google Cloud Computing Foundations courses are for individuals with little to no background or experience in cloud computing. They provide an overview of concepts central to cloud basics, big data, and machine learning, and where and how Google Cloud fits in. By the end of the series of courses, learners will be able to articulate these concepts and demonstrate some hands-on skills. The courses should be completed in the following order: 1. Google Cloud Computing Foundations: Cloud Computing Fundamentals 2. Google Cloud Computing Foundations: Infrastructure in Google Cloud 3. Google Cloud Computing Foundations: Networking and Security in Google Cloud 4. Google Cloud Computing Foundations: Data, ML, and AI in Google Cloud This first course provides an overview of cloud computing, ways to use Google Cloud, and different compute options.
In this introductory-level course, you get hands-on practice with the Google Cloud’s fundamental tools and services. Optional videos are provided to provide more context and review for the concepts covered in the labs. Google Cloud Essentials is a recommendeded first course for the Google Cloud learner - you can come in with little or no prior cloud knowledge, and come out with practical experience that you can apply to your first Google Cloud project. From writing Cloud Shell commands and deploying your first virtual machine, to running applications on Kubernetes Engine or with load balancing, Google Cloud Essentials is a prime introduction to the platform’s basic features.
Every great app starts with a solid foundation—and that’s exactly what you’ll build here. Spin up VMs, deploy SQL Server, and move data with confidence. But it doesn't stop there. As threats loom and traffic spikes, you’ll step up—locking buckets, defending with Cloud Armor, and scanning for vulnerabilities. It’s your mission to launch fast, stay secure, and keep everything running smoothly—all while working towards an exclusive Google Cloud credential!
