Architecting with Google Kubernetes Engine
Learn how to deploy and manage containerized applications on Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE). Learn how to use other tools on Google Cloud that interact with GKE deployments. This course features a combination of lectures, demos, and hands-on labs to help you explore and deploy solution elements—including infrastructure components like pods, containers, deployments, and services—along with networks and application services. You'll also learn how to deploy practical solutions, including security and access management, resource management, and resource monitoring.
