Get ready to take on the Google Cloud Associate Cloud Engineer exam through examples and sample exam questions.

Whether youre preparing to take the Associate Cloud Engineer certificate exam or are just interested in deepening your knowledge of Google Cloud technologies, the Google Cloud Platform Associate Cloud Engineer video course will teach you all you need to know to pass the exam but also to equip you with the fundamental skills to excel as a Google Cloud engineer. Author and trainer Victor Dantas takes you through the vast landscape of Google Cloud services and how to use those services to deploy applications, monitor operations, and manage enterprise solutions on GCP.

Throughout the video course, Victor has covered every objective in the exam by breaking them down and distilling the most important concepts you need to know with the uses of examples and visuals that will help you internalize difficult and abstract concepts. Each module also includes demos and sample exam questions, which will test your knowledge in precisely the same way the Associate Cloud Engineer exam will on test day. Even if youre not taking the exam, these questions will help you develop your Google Cloud skills as an engineer. By the end of the course, you will understand the key technical concepts and be prepared to take on the ACE exam.

Topics covered include:

  • Associate Cloud Engineer Certification overview provides you with an overview of the exam and the exam objectives as well as some of the practical details you need to know for taking the exam. By the end of this module, you should have a good understanding of what to expect on the exam.
  • Setting up a cloud solution covers environment foundational tasks that a cloud engineer needs to perform. That includes setting up cloud projects and accounts, managing billing configuration, and installing and configuring the command line interface.
  • Planning and configuring a cloud solution is a deeper dive into the platform, including planning and estimating Google Cloud product use, planning and configuring compute resources, planning and configuring data storage options, and planning and configuring network resources.
  • Deploying and implementing a cloud solution covers the common hands-on tasks that a cloud engineer performs when working with Google Cloud solutions. From deploying and implementing virtual machines and compute platforms, to databases, to network resources, to doing infrastructure as code
  • Ensuring successful operation of a cloud solution dives into how to operate and maintain existing solutions. This covers how to manage compute, data, and networking resources, and also monitoring and logging, two crucial products for successful operations.
  • Configuring access and security focuses on securing access to Google Cloud resources and managing Identity and Access Management then on to Managing service accounts.

Learn How To:

  • Set up a cloud solution environment
  • Plan and configure a cloud solution
  • Deploy and implement a cloud solution
  • Ensure successful operation of a cloud solution
  • Configure access and security
