This three-day course uses lectures, hands-on labs, and supplemental resources to show you how to design, install, manage, and scale your Apigee API Platform.
You’ll learn the Apigee hybrid architecture, and develop an understanding of the Apigee hybrid terminology and organizational model. By installing Apigee hybrid, you’ll get to implement scenarios to manage, scale, and monitor the software components that make up the hybrid platform.
By the end of the session, you’ll be able to help accelerate time to value, minimize dependency on third-party solutions and be able to provide support for Apigee hybrid, enabling scale up on platform as API programs grow.
Our Managing Google Cloud's Apigee API Platform for Hybrid Cloud 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.
