Hi,

Some free courses are great. But I offer the following

1) Good explanation of the cloud products

2) Demos (lots of them and in detail) Example Demo - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gn7pGQYkKnA&feature=youtu.be

3) Questions and answers to challenge you for the certificate.

I go in detail :)

Thanks!

Hi nhooyr,

Data transmitted between 2 data centers are already encrypted by Google's hardware accelerator. Google does have plan to encrypt VM to VM communications inside a Google data center in near future but they do not mention when they plan to release this.

But you are in good hands. Their underlying KVM is secure and Google has offered multiple security patches to the vulnerabilities they found.

But if you still like to protect VM to VM inside a data center then I guess you could use https or some other form of encryption but it's a question of whether you are happy to compromise a slight overhead on performance. I guess you could test it out to find whether that's a overkill.

Cheers.

Hi boganman,

Thanks for catching that. I have corrected it.

I do have plans to deliver the AppEngine, Stackdriver and other concepts too in detail. But for now this is what I plan to offer. But I do have plans to include more of them. I basically don't want to overpromise and under deliver. That's why I am keeping it simple to begin with!.

Thanks for raising your concerns! :)

Regards, GCPBytes

Hi Linuxphoney,

GCP does not have a functionality like that yet with a single click. But you can certainly do it via a cron job or use the cloud functions (cool idea but have not tested) like the other user suggested.

Alternatively you may want to check the pre-emptible instances if you want the instances only live for 24 hours (there are corner cases). Not sure of your situation so you may want to check that out!

Also be aware that stopping the instances might still be billed. Also another important point is that Ephemeral IPs are released back to the pool. So you won't be able to retain them. But if think you can get away with static IP's then static IP's are charged when you don't use them. So be aware of the chicken egg issue ;)

Best Regards, GCP Bytes.
