Key benefits

  • Maximize your code potential using Google Cloud services
  • Migrate legacy code to the cloud seamlessly and create code that runs anywhere
  • Use hands-on examples to learn and showcase your experience with Google Cloud

Description

As more organizations embrace cloud computing, developers new to the cloud often feel overwhelmed by cloud migration and code running directly on the cloud. Google Cloud for Developers comes packed with practical tips and expert advice to accelerate your application development journey and help you unlock the full potential of cloud computing. You’ll begin by understanding and comparing all the available options to run your code. You’ll write, deploy, monitor, and troubleshoot your code without leaving the Google Cloud IDE while selecting the best option – serverless or GKE containers – for each use case. After that, you’ll get to grips with the basic Google Cloud infrastructure services and connect your code with public APIs. This will help you add features to your application, such as language translation and object detection in images or videos. Furthermore, you’ll explore a comprehensive list of tips and best practices to make your migration smooth. You’ll also gain the necessary knowledge to write code from scratch, by employing the basics of hybrid cloud applications and build services that can run virtually anywhere. By the end of this book, you’ll be well equipped to carry out the application development process and successfully move your code to Google Cloud.

Who is this book for?

Google Cloud for Developers is for cloud architects, engineers, or developers willing to migrate their applications and services to Google Cloud or build them from scratch. Entrepreneurs in early-stage start-ups and IT professionals who want to know more about Google Cloud from a developer perspective will also benefit from this book.

This books, like its name, is for developers wanting a concise, quick entry into utilizing GCP for development.I really like the approach that is taken in this book. Firstly, there is a discussion on migrating applications to the cloud. Anyone who has some experience with cloud migrations can tell you, it's not just about replacing the underlying infrastructure with the cloud equivalents. This common lift-and-shift approach is where companies get burnt.The next few chapters assist the user with IDE setup, as well as how to utilize the developer tools provided by GCP. Educating users on logging and debugging techniques of GCP is vital for a smooth development experience. This helps the rest of the Ops as when it comes to collecting logs and debugging as well.We first get our feet wet by developing CLoud Functions, and slowly progress to Serverless offerrings. The author builds on this by then including GKE, and Anthos for Hybrid Cloud Computing.GCP Networking, and common serverless technologies that tie up all the solutions are then explained.Once the reader has been equipped with essential GCP knowledge, all knowledge is tied in and cemented through the discussion common Architecture Patterns for Hybrid Cloud.This book has a real holistic approach to adopting GCP for your use. It is well organised, and guides you into GCP using a structured manner, which makes senseThe thing that stands out in this book is, If I was to learn cloud again, this would be the best way to figure out how to incorporate cloud in your business. The information is laid out in a progressive manner. developer who read this book in order will be able to create applications using a more cloud native approach.

The book covers a wide range of subjects, from modern software development practices to executing serverless code and containerized apps. "Connecting the Dots - Building Hybrid Cloud Solutions That Can Run Anywhere" to the cloud computing's limitless potential. Not to mention the time-saving Google Cloud services and machine learning APIs, which added an entirely new level of capability.Google Cloud allows you to reach new heights in your development adventure, and this book will help you get there.

Many books about cloud computing focus on the infrastructure, such as networking, IAM, and landing zones. However, this book takes a developer-centric approach to Google Cloud, which I find to be exceptionally valuable. In addition to covering the essential tools and services for building modern applications on Google Cloud, I also appreciate the emphasis on serverless and containers. This book is also very practical, with helpful code examples, architecture patterns, and best practices. I highly recommend this book to anyone interested in Google Cloud, especially developers!

As a beginner, for sure you are going to need a trustable guide on the best approach to start learning a new skill. In this case, I feel this book will be the right companion for you to begin this trip as a developer on the Google Cloud Platform.It starts with what I think is the best approach for learning this kind of technology: start by doing, fail fast, and fail safe. The very first chapter on content is about how to start doing things on GCP ("Starting to Develop on Google Cloud") and provides you direct hints on what to do in order to get your hands on practical things! this is definitely the approach!Once you are done with your gear/setup, you will follow with a sound introduction to the most relevant products as today, meeting serverless services, up to the robust kubernetes managed offering in GCP and its unique and revolutionary next step, that is Anthos. You will be also introduced to many complementary services on GCP in the next chapters, organized in a practical way more than a commercial or logical hierarchy (that is the usual way this contents are delivered).Finally, once you are ready on the elementary tools and be familiarised on most advanced complementary services, you are given an excellent compendium on best practices, architectural patterns, practical use-cases, and "do and do nots" based on practical experience.In the case you missed it, I started this review with trying to explain you this is a breaking and disruptive way to approach a new platform. Usually, you will find several and several of resources explaining you the context, the ideas and concepts, and just then, after a while, getting to work with the platform. This book maybe assumes a little background on some sort of compatible technology, but focuses on a practical way to learning by doing, as soon as possible.

Can I download the code files for Early Access titles? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

We try to ensure that all books in Early Access have code available to use, download, and fork on GitHub. This helps us be more agile in the development of the book, and helps keep the often changing code base of new versions and new technologies as up to date as possible.

When we publish the book, the code files will also be available to download from the Packt website.
