VPC Service Controls
VPC Service Controls protect your projects from data exfiltration by creating a perimeter that only allows access to authorized networks. For example, VPC Service Controls can prevent applications and users from reading data from or copying data to a resource outside the perimeter. Problem You need a method to prevent data exfiltration from your Google Cloud resources.…

GKE Gateway controller
The Gateway API is an API in the Kubernetes system and aims to standardize ingress into clusters. In this recipe, we walked through how to provide a multitenant gateway that routes users to two deployments, depending on the HTTP route. The Gateway API provides many more features for advanced routing and traffic management, such as…

Resizing a Cluster
Click default-pool (or whatever the name of your particular node pool is), Click Edit at the top of the Node Pools screen. Now we can increase and decrease the default size of our node pool to any number of nodes that we prefer. If you want your Kubernetes cluster to autoscale up based on node…

Regional GKE cluster
Regional clusters allow for higher availability, fault tolerance, and no-downtime upgrades. This makes your application more resilient and spread across multiple zones within a single region. With a regional cluster, you have nodes deployed across the zones within that region, so expect that the number of nodes, total vCPUs, and total memory are larger than…

GKE and NEG
A cluster that uses alias IP address ranges is considered a VPC-native cluster. A cluster that uses custom static routes in a VPC network is called a routes-based cluster When using VPC-native, administrators can also take advantage of network endpoint groups (NEG), which represent a group of backends served by a load balancer. NEGs are lists of…

BigQuery external sources
External sources such as Cloud Storage house unstructured data while the data is accessed in BigQuery with metadata fields and references to the unstructured objects. BigQuery uses object tables to achieve this.

unstructured data storage
In Google Cloud, there are several options for unstructured data storage, depending on your requirements, format, and purpose of application or storage. Let’s look at a few:

Choosing the right database
Online transaction processingWe have the good old relational database for OLTP, which typically follows these normalization rules: Third normal form: A relation is in the third normal form if the second normal form is satisfied and if the column that is transitively dependent on the primary key should be eliminated and moved to another table, along with the determinant.…

The structure of data
The structure of the data is a crucial factor in deciding the choice and design of a database. There are three widely recognized categories: Structured data This type of data is typically composed of rows and columns; rows are entities or records and columns are attributes. Structured data is organized in such a way that you can be…
