Interacting with google cloud Modul 1.1 Flashcards
How can you interact with GCP
There are four ways:
1.Google Cloud Platform console or GCP console, 2.Cloud Shell and the Cloud SDK,
3.the APIs
4.the Cloud mobile app.
What is Cloud Shell
Cloud Shell is a temporary Virtual Machine with five gigabytes of persistent disk storage that has the Cloud SDK pre-installed.
GCP Client Libraries expose APIs for two main purposes.
App APIs provide access to services, and they’re optimized for supported languages such as Node, js or Python.
Admin APIs offer functionality for resource management.
What things GCP Console can do and Cloud Shell can’t
can keep track of the context of your configuration activities.
It can use the Cloud API to determine from the current system state, what options are valid, and it can perform repetitive or more leveraged activities on your behalf.
What Cloud Shel offers more than GSP Console
Cloud Shell in contrast offers detailed and precise control, and through its commands, a way to script and automate activities.
GCP network
uses a software defined network, that is built on a global fiber infrastructure.
Virtual Private Cloud or VPC
is a Google’s managed networking functionality, for Euro Cloud Platform resources.
VPC fundamental components:
are projects, networks, subnetworks, IP addresses, routes, and firewall rules, along with network pricing.
On a high level, Google Cloud consists of regions, what are regions?
A region is a specific geographical location where you can run your resources. Each region has three zones.
US-Central1 has four zones: US-Central1-A, US-Central1-B, US-Central1-C, and US-Central1-F.
What is PoPs acronym for
are points of presence
where Google’s network is connected to the rest of the internet.
What GCP network connects
connects regions and PoPs, and is composed of a global network of fiber optic cables with several submarine cable investments.
GSP network comes in three different modes, which are those?
default,
auto mode,
and custom mode.
What are subnets for
Subnetworks allow you to divide or segregate your environment.
What type of addresses VPC provides
Ip addresses for internal and external use along with granular IP address range selections.
