Course Introduction
1. Course Introduction
Hi, and welcome to the Google Cloud Fundamentals: Core Infrastructure training course. The goal of this course is to provide you with an overview of Google Cloud. Google Cloud offerings can be broadly categorised as compute, storage, big data, machine learning, and application services for web, mobile, analytics, and back-end solutions. Through a combination of videos, quizzes, and hands-on labs, you’ll learn the value of Google Cloud and how cloud solutions factor into business strategies. The intended target audience of today’s course consists of solutions developers, systems operations professionals, and solution architects planning to deploy applications and create application environments on Google Cloud. The course will also be useful for business decision makers evaluating Google Cloud. While you should be happy to hear that we’ll be finding out about services and concepts that are specific to Google Cloud in this course, do keep in mind that, as a ‘fundamentals’ level course, some content will be geared towards learners who are entirely new to cloud technologies. This course has no prerequisites, although it’s helpful be familiar with application development, Linux operating systems, systems operations, and data analytics/machine learning to best understand the technologies covered. There are seven key learning objectives that we’re hoping to achieve. By the end of this course, you should be able to: Identify the purpose and value of Google Cloud products and services. Define how infrastructure is organized and controlled in Google Cloud. Explain how to create a basic infrastructure in Google Cloud. Select and use Google Cloud storage options. Describe the purpose and value of Google Kubernetes Engine. Identify the use cases for serverless Google Cloud services. And combine Google Cloud knowledge with prompt engineering to improve Gemini responses. OK, all set? Let’s begin!2. Let's practice!
