Introduction

In this chapter, we'll discover some networking features of Google Cloud Platform (GCP). Google uses a state-of-the-art software-defined network to provide the networking feature for its customers. The networking unit of encapsulation for a set of IP ranges, firewall configurations,and VPN and routing configurations is the Virtual Private Cloud (VPC). VPCs can be scoped globally or regionally and are designed for high levels of security isolation and scalability. It is also possible to share the VPCs among projects.

In this chapter, we'll perform some recipes using multiple network interface cards (NICs), discover advanced features of load balancing and connect two VPCs using peering and a VPN connection.

In addition to its various VPC features, GCP also offers dedicated network services for DNS and CDN. We'll create a static website using Google Storage and put it behind Google CDN and measure its performance from varied locations.

Google Cloud Platform for Architects

Google Cloud Platform for Architects

The Google Cloud Platform is fast emerging as a leading public cloud provider. The GCP, as it is popularly known, is backed by Google’s awe-inspiring engineering expertise and infrastructure and is able to draw upon the goodwill and respect that Google has come to enjoy. The GCP is one of a handful of public cloud providers to offer the full range of cloud computing services, ranging from IaaS (Infrastructure-as-a-Service) to PaaS (Platform-as-a-Service). There is another reason the GCP is fast gaining popularity; genre-defining technologies such as TensorFlow and Kubernetes originated at Google before being open-sourced, and the GCP is a natural choice of cloud on which to run them. If you are a cloud professional today, time spent on mastering the GCP is likely to be an excellent investment.
