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

This three-day course will allow you to get the most out of Google Cloud Run, a managed compute platform that lets you run containers directly on top of Google's scalable infrastructure.

Through a combination of lectures, hands-on labs, and supplemental materials, you’ll learn how to design, implement, deploy, secure, manage, and scale applications on Google Cloud using Cloud Run.

You can deploy code written in any programming language on Cloud Run if you can build a container image from it. In fact, building container images is optional. If you're using Go, Node.js, Python, Java, .NET Core, or Ruby, you can use the source-based deployment option that builds the container for you, using the best practices for the language you're using.

Our Application Development with Cloud Run course is available as a private training session that can be delivered via Virtual Classroom or at a location of your choice in South Africa.

Course overview

Who should attend:

This course is suitable for Cloud developers, API developers, customers, and partners.

What you'll learn:

  • Write and migrate code your way using your favorite languages (Go, Python, Java, Ruby, Node.js, and more)
  • Secure service-to-service communication based on service identities and grant applications only the permissions they need
  • Build highly available applications with low end-user latency, globally
  • Connect to, and persist data in the managed database offerings on Google Cloud
  • Understand how abstracting away all infrastructure management creates a simple developer experience
