Monitoring, Managing, and Maximizing Google Cloud Operations (GCP DevOps Engineer Track Part 4)
Deep dive into monitoring, troubleshooting, and improve applications on GCP on your way to becoming a GCP DevOps Engineer.
What you'll learn
Welcome to the Google Cloud Monitoring, Managing, and Maximizing Google Cloud Operations course. This course is the fourth in the Google Professional Cloud DevOps Engineer certification path. This course details how to monitor, troubleshoot, and maximize application performance using the Cloud Operations suite (formerly known as Stackdriver). It then covers how to use the suite to monitor applications, collect logs, optimize application performance, and troubleshoot application errors using Cloud Monitoring, Logging, Trace, Error Reporting, Debug, and Profiler. This course starts with a high-level overview of Cloud Operations and how it relates to SRE principles. We then go into a hands-on deep dive of each of the Cloud Operations products. Along the way, Mattias Andersson stops by at the end of every section for a quick recap, and perhaps a slightly different perspective on the topics covered. Regarding prerequisites: We recommend you have at least the Associate Cloud Engineer level certification (or equivalent knowledge) before attempting this course. You also need to be comfortable using Git for application development, working with Docker containers, and navigating Kubernetes, as we will be using all three extensively in this course.

About the authors
Oddly enough, theater - or more exactly, performance art. After coming to NY to pursue a career as a theater director, I started doing solo work to better understand acting. At the time, I belonged to a group that had received an NEA grant and I used my money to buy a personal computer that I then performed with, on stage. That led me down the rabbit hole of technology and before I knew it, I was writing books on web design - which was quickly followed by building on-line courses as a part-time, and later, full-time content author for ACG and Pluralsight.
