Deploy and Manage Cloud Environments with Google Cloud

Earn a skill badge by completing the Deploy and Manage Cloud Environments with Google Cloud quest, where you will learn how to: 1. Deploy and manage a containerized application using Google Kubernetes Engine and kubectl. 2. Launch a VM-based application using Cloud Deployment Manager, and then monitor and stress the application. 3. Deploy continuous delivery pipelines using Google Kubernetes Engine and Spinnaker. 4. Create and control access to multiple VPC networks. 5. Configure and use Cloud Monitoring to troubleshoot breaks in applications. A skill badge is an exclusive digital badge issued by Google Cloud in recognition of your proficiency with Google Cloud products and services and tests your ability to apply your knowledge in an interactive hands-on environment. Complete the skill badge quest, and final assessment challenge lab, to receive a digital badge that you can share with your network.

• Orchestrating the Cloud with Kubernetes
• In this lab you will learn how to provision a complete Kubernetes cluster using Google Container Engine; deploy and manage Docker containers using kubectl; and break an application into microservices using Kubernetes’ Deployments and Services.
• Continuous Delivery Pipelines with Spinnaker and Kubernetes Engine
• Create a Kubernetes Engine cluster, deploy an application, and use Spinnaker to continuously deploy the application when changes are made to the application.
• Multiple VPC Networks
• In this lab, you create several VPC networks and VM instances and test connectivity across networks.
• Troubleshooting Workloads on GKE for Site Reliability Engineers
• The Cloud Operations Sandbox is intended to make it easy for you to deploy and run a non-trivial application that lets you explore the Google Cloud Platform services, particularly the Cloud Operations (formerly Stackdriver) product suite.
• Deploy and Manage Cloud Environments with Google Cloud: Challenge Lab
• This challenge lab tests your skills and knowledge from the labs in the Cloud Architecture quest. You should be familiar with the content of labs before attempting this lab.
