In Module 1: "This module acts as a stepping stone into the world of DevOps and Google Cloud Platform (GCP). Here, you'll become familiar with the fundamental principles and benefits of DevOps, understand the DevOps lifecycle, and learn about the array of DevOps services provided by GCP.
As we move further into the module, you'll be guided through the process of setting up a development environment on GCP, using Cloud Source Repositories for version control, and handling Continuous Integration with Cloud Build. We wrap up the module by discussing how to containerize and deploy applications using Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE) and Google Cloud Deployment Manager."
Module 2: "In this module, we delve into the practical aspect of configuring and managing Continuous Integration and Continuous Delivery (CI/CD) pipelines using Cloud Build. You'll learn about automating testing and quality assurance processes and managing different deployment strategies on GKE. We then shift our focus to release orchestration and management using Cloud Run and Cloud Functions.
In the latter part of this module, you'll be introduced to effective techniques for monitoring, logging, and error handling with Stackdriver. The module concludes with a deep dive into the best practices for implementing DevOps on GCP, along with real-world case studies to help you understand how these practices are put into action".
This course is perfect for developers, system operators, or any IT professionals who are interested in understanding DevOps in the Google Cloud ecosystem, looking to implement DevOps practices in their workflows, or seeking to enhance their existing knowledge and skills in GCP and DevOps. Prior knowledge of GCP is not mandatory but a basic understanding of DevOps concepts would be beneficial.
Join us in this learning journey and empower yourself with the competencies required to build, deploy, monitor, and optimize applications using Google Cloud's DevOps services. By the end of this course, you'll have a solid grasp of DevOps fundamentals and how to implement them using Google Cloud tools and services.

What you'll learn

  • Manage Continuous Integration with Cloud Build, and deploy applications using Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE) and Google Cloud Deployment Manager.
  • Configure and manage Continuous Integration and Continuous Delivery (CI/CD) pipelines using Cloud Build.

Amazon famously delivers new code every 11.6 seconds. Just a few years ago, this was unthinkable: many ‘cutting edge’ firms would release software quarterly. When it comes to digital innovation, velocity is critical and many would say it’s the most reliable determinant of success. Bringing an organization to the state of the art (or even functional capability) in this area requires strong work in a combination of disciplines and a combination of both technical and managerial skills. There is no single cookie-cutter approach for achieving this capability.
