TOP REVIEWS FROM ESSENTIAL GOOGLE CLOUD INFRASTRUCTURE: FOUNDATION
Thanks to Google and its team for producing such a wonderful training content. It was a breeze to know about GCP and core services even for a guy like me how has not been hands-on for over 20 years.
During lab exercise, VM instances were not getting created for different regions. If the networking chapter could have explained little more detail it would have helped to understand.
This was a more in depth course for network topologies and vm creation. It is strange that this course came after the first course, where some of the topics were also covered.
Some things left unclear such as warnings from gcloud about parallelizing disk operations, and the use of a flag on an SSD persistent disk that the mount manual says has a performance hit.
