Virtual Classroom

A convenient and interactive learning experience, that enables you to attend one of our courses from the comfort of your own home or anywhere you can log on. We offer Virtual Classroom on selected live classroom courses where this will appear as an option under the location drop down if available. These can also be booked as Private Virtual Classrooms for exclusive business sessions.

Private

A private training session for your team. Groups can be of any size, at a location of your choice including our training centres.

As a Google Cloud Partner, we’ll share our experience on design patterns and the principles of Google Site Reliability Engineering (SRE).

Through a combination of presentations, demos, and hands-on labs, you’ll learn how to use proven design patterns on Google Cloud to build highly reliable and efficient solutions and operate deployments that are highly available and cost-effective.

Please note that this advanced course is intended for those who have already completed the Architecting with Google Compute Engine or the Architecting with Google Kubernetes Engine course, and assumes you have gained hands-on experience with the technologies covered in those sessions.

Our Architecting with Google Cloud: Design & Process course is delivered via Virtual Classroom. We also offer it as a private training session that can be delivered virtually or at a location of your choice in the UK.

Course overview

Who should attend:

This course is ideal for Cloud solutions architects, site reliability engineers, systems operations professionals, DevOps engineers and IT managers. You’ll also benefit from taking it if you use Google Cloud to create new solutions or to integrate existing systems, application environments, and infrastructure.

What you'll learn:

By the end of this course, you will be able to:

Apply a tool set of questions, techniques and design considerations
Define application requirements and express them objectively as KPIs, SLOs and SLIs
Decompose application requirements to find the right microservice boundaries
Leverage Google Cloud developer tools to set up modern, automated deployment pipelines
Choose the appropriate Google Cloud Storage services based on application requirements
Architect cloud and hybrid networks
Implement reliable, scalable and resilient applications balancing key performance metrics with cost
Choose the right Google Cloud deployment services for your applications
Secure cloud applications, data and infrastructure
Monitor service-level objectives and costs using Stackdriver tools

Prerequisites

To get the most out of this course you should have completed the Architecting with Google Compute Engine or Architecting with Google Kubernetes Engine courses. You’ll also need to have basic proficiency with command-line tools, and it’s recommended you have Systems Operations experience – including deploying and managing applications, either on-premises or in a public cloud environment.
