What you'll learn

Building scalable, reliable, and secure applications in the cloud is challenging, especially when systems must handle unpredictable traffic, strict security requirements, and complex integrations. In this course, (GCP-PCD) Designing Highly Scalable, Available, and Reliable Cloud-native Applications, you’ll gain the ability to architect and deploy production-ready applications on Google Cloud. First, you’ll explore how to design high-performing services using load balancing, caching, traffic splitting, and event-driven patterns. Next, you’ll discover how to secure applications end-to-end with IAM, Identity Platform, Secret Manager, Binary Authorization, and service-to-service security. Finally, you’ll learn how to choose the right storage systems and design data models that scale across regions with strong or eventual consistency. When you’re finished with this course, you’ll have the skills and knowledge of cloud-native application design needed to build scalable, resilient, and secure systems on Google Cloud.
