Google Professional Cloud Architect: Designing for Technical Requirements
Though a cloud architect must focus on the business needs of an organization, they will be wildly ineffective without a thorough understanding of the technical requirements of a project that are used to meet those business needs. In this course, you will explore high availability, scalability, and reliability - the three main categories of those technical requirements. You will discover how each of those requirements is integrated into decisions made regarding the compute, storage, networking, and application design decisions. Finally, you will examine use cases that you can expect to encounter in an exam environment. This course is one of a collection that prepares learners for the Google Professional Cloud Architect exam.

Google Professional Cloud Architect: Using Google Container Orchestration
Application project management has largely left the monolithic Waterfall methodology behind in favor of the more lightweight and flexible Agile approach. Application hosting has also been overhauled where the compute environment is not an entire dedicated VM and OS, and instead, containerized applications provide a scalable, modular, and flexible approach. In this course, learn the ways Google Cloud provides containers that can be cloud-hosted and the business cases that drive each method. Next, practice deploying containers to Google Compute Engine (GCE), Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE), and Google Cloud Run. Finally, explore how the course content relates to the use cases commonly encountered in an exam environment. This course is one of a collection that prepares learners for the Google Professional Cloud Architect exam.
