Course Description
Distribute Traffic Reliably
Load balancers keep applications fast and available as demand grows. Building on the Networking in Google Cloud: Fundamentals course, this intermediate course uses presentations, demos, and hands-on labs to show you how to put Cloud Load Balancing to work.Implement Hybrid Load Balancing and Traffic Management
You’ll learn how hybrid load balancing lets you spread traffic across backends in Google Cloud and in your own data centers. Then you’ll configure traffic management on a load balancer in a guided lab, controlling how requests are routed to your services.Cache, Protect, and Optimize
Next, you’ll explore how internal network load balancers can act as next hops, speed up content delivery with Cloud CDN, and use Google Cloud Armor to defend your edge cache. You’ll finish with strategies for optimizing load balancer performance. By the end, you’ll be able to implement hybrid load balancing, manage traffic, and secure your load balancers with Cloud Armor.Prerequisites
