Configuring and Implementing Networking Components
This chapter will explore how to build a network and configure network services for your workloads in Google Cloud. We are going to cover the following topics:
- Virtual Private Cloud
- Hybrid networking
- Securing cloud networks with firewall rules
- Cloud DNS
- Network load balancing
Networking is the foundation of every system architecture. However, connecting internal cloud workloads across projects, exposing services to the internet, or building a hybrid network between an on-premises location and Google Cloud can be challenging. Therefore, it is worth understanding how Google Cloud’s network services portfolio could be used to build secure and reliable architectures.
Throughout this chapter, we will explore the concept of a Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) and its application in securing and connecting networks. Additionally, we will gain insight into the functioning of the DNS service in Google Cloud...
