Hybrid Connectivity:


Consider Company X, which has an on-premises environment with a production and a development network. They would like to connect their on-premises environment with Google Cloud so that the resources and services can easily connect between the two environments. They can use either Cloud Interconnect for dedicated connection or Cloud VPN for connection via an IPsec secure tunnel. Both work, but the choice would depend on how much bandwidth they need; for higher bandwidth and more data, dedicated interconnect is recommended. Cloud Router would help enable the dynamic routes between the on-premises environment and Google Cloud VPC. If they have multiple networks/locations, they could also use Network Connectivity Center to connect their different enterprise sites outside of Google Cloud by using the Google network as a wide area network (WAN). Virtual Private Cloud (VPC): They deploy all their resources in VPC, but one of the requirements is to keep the Prod and Dev environments separate. For this, the team needs to use Shared VPC, which allows them to connect resources from multiple projects to a common Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) network so that they can communicate with each other securely and efficiently using internal IPs from that network.
