IP addressing for GKE
When you deal with large workloads, Google Cloud recommends regional GKE clusters with the VPC-native networking mode. This allows VPC subnets to have a secondary range of IP addresses for all Pods running in the cluster. With VPC-native mode, routing traffic to Pods is automatically achieved without adding any custom routes to the VPC. Designing…

Design a GCP network
Hot DR scenario for three-tier application in hybrid cloud: The database tier should include reliability as well. In GCP, this can be achieved with Cloud Spanner, which is a regional managed relational database service. To achieve database synchronization, the application tier must be modified to write consistently to both databases. Dedicated Interconnect and Cloud VPN…

Private services access
Google and third parties (together known as service producers) can offer services that are hosted in a VPC network. Private services access lets you reach the internal IP addresses of these Google and third-party services by using private connections. This is useful if you want your VM instances in your VPC network to use internal…

Private Google Access
VM instances that only have internal IP addresses (no external IP addresses) can use Private Google Access. They can reach the external IP addresses of Google APIs and services. The source IP address of the packet can be the primary internal IP address of the network interface or an address in an alias IP range…

Network Security
Three types of IAM roles that you can use: Five types of IAM members: Assigning an IAM service account to a Google Compute Engine instance: Once the Google Compute Engine is instantiated, you can connect using SSH (Secure Socket Shell) and use the Google Cloud Software Development Kit (SDK) to create and have full control…

Storage Transfer Service
Storage Transfer Service automates the transfer of data to, from, and between object and file storage systems, including Google Cloud Storage, Amazon S3, Azure Storage, on-premises data, and more. It can be used to transfer large amounts of data quickly and reliably, without the need to write any code.

Bigtable vs. BigQuery
At a high level, Bigtable is a NoSQL wide-column database. It’s optimized for low latency, large numbers of reads and writes, and maintaining performance at scale. Bigtable use cases are of a certain scale or throughput with strict latency requirements, such as IoT, AdTech, FinTech, and so on. If high throughput and low latency at scale are…

View the quotas for your project
The Quotas & System Limits page displays a table with configurable columns. The Service and Quota columns provide general information about which quota is being described. For example, the Service might be Cloud Logging API and the Quota might be Log ingestion requests per minute. The Quota field also describes how the quota is evaluated. Rate quotas are evaluated per minute, per 100 seconds, or per day. Quotas without any…

Security is a layered approach
Let’s see how Google Cloud provides capabilities across the various layers of security. Infrastructure Security Google’s stack builds security through progressive layers that deliver true defense in depth at scale. Google’s hardware infrastructure is custom-designed “from chip to chiller” to precisely meet specific requirements. Its software and OS are stripped-down, hardened versions of Linux. Titan…
