Módulo 1: Designing, planning, and prototyping a Google Cloud Network
Temas:
Within the context of the sample scenario:
- Describe how Load Balancing will be used for general users accessing resources from the internet as well as internal users accessing from private connected networks.
- Describe how Cloud CDN, Armor and NAT will be configured and the benefits they will provide, and used and how Cloud DNS will be integrated with an on-premise DNS system.
- Describe how packet mirroring will be used for periodic network forensic audit.
Objetivos:
- Explain the considerations involved in designing an overall network architecture.
- Identify considerations for designing a VPC, a hybrid or multi-cloud network, or an IP addressing plan for GKE.
- Determine the skills you need to develop to effectively design, plan, and prototype a Google Cloud network.
Módulo 2: Implementing a VPC
Temas:
Within the context of the sample scenario:
- Assuming Kubernetes clusters will be used in all the networks, describe how IP addresses will be distributed among them.
- Describe the sort of interconnections will be added between Google Cloud and external environments and how the routing will be configured for them.
