However, there are still plenty of applications and workloads that are better suited for running on VM instances. It abstracts away the need to think about individual virtual machines and that can make life easier on developers and operations.
Sometimes, we're building something like a web application and using hosted platforms like AppEngine makes a lot of sense. We'll talk about Compute Engine and creating instances and then once we have our instances running, we'll need to connect to them, so we'll talk about that as our closing topic. In this lesson, we're going to talk about virtual machine instances.
#HOW TO USE VIRTUALBOX ON GOOGLE ENGINE HOW TO#
How to automatically add and remove instancesĪ demo of how to use some of the services we've learned about Using startup scripts to provision machines at boot time How to manage instances with managed and unmanaged groups How to use snapshots for point-in-time backups You’re at least familiar with general IT concepts What You'll LearnĪn introduction to the Google Cloud Platform You have at least a basic understanding of the cloud This is an intermediate level course because it assumes: How to use the auto-scaler and load balancer How to create instance templates and groups How to use Compute Engine to create virtual machines What exactly will we cover in this course? Course Objectives: Google Cloud Platform system operations And if you're looking to learn more about the Google Cloud systems operations, then this may be the course for you. Google also offers per-minute billing for VM instances, after the first 10 minutes. As well as the massively scalable software-based, global load balancer which doesn't require pre-warming. Where the Google Cloud is different is in the speed of creating and starting up virtual machine instances. If we're going to create and implement an application on the Google Cloud Platform system operations, then understanding these services are going to help us to create highly available, highly scalable applications.Īll the major cloud providers offer the ability to set up virtual machines, networks, auto-scalers, and load balancers. Google provides us with Compute Engine which allows us to create virtual machines, custom images, snapshots, networks, auto-scalers and load balancers. And so cloud vendors offer IaaS (infrastructure as a service) options. However, there are still plenty of times where we need to set up our own infrastructure.
Things such as Google App Engine, AWS Elastic Beanstalk, Azure App Services: Web Apps, among others. There are a lot of different options, across a variety of cloud platforms that are well suited for running specific workloads, such as web applications.
