Modernize Infrastructure and Applications with


Google Cloud
01
In cloud computing, there are several key terms related to modernizing infrastructure
and applications:

• Workload: Apps/services running on the cloud or on-premises.


• Retiring: Removing unnecessary workloads.
• Retaining: Keeping workloads on-premises or in hybrid cloud.
• Rehosting (Lift and Shift): Quick migration without changes.
• Replatforming: Migration with some changes to improve performance.
• Refactoring: Changing code for efficiency and scalability.
• Reimagining: Rethinking technology to meet business goals.

02) Key Points


• Compute in Cloud: Refers to data processing tasks done on remote servers instead of
local servers.
• Cloud Computing: Access computing resources (apps, storage, processing) on-demand
via remote servers.
• Benefits: Cost-effective, scalable, flexible.
• • Cloud Options: Virtual Machines, Containers, Serverless.

Cloud computing example: Using Google Drive to store files online.


Compute cloud example: Utilizing Amazon Web Services (AWS) to run a complex
data analysis program on a virtual machine.

03) Key Benefits of Running Compute Workloads in the Cloud


• TCO: Cloud reduces costs by eliminating physical infrastructure needs.
• Scalability: Easily adjust resources to meet changing demand.
• Reliability: High uptime with global data centers and automatic issue detection.
• Security: Strong protection with encryption, access management, and real-time threat
monitoring.
• Flexibility: Quickly adapt services to changing business needs.
• Abstraction: Cloud manages infrastructure, freeing businesses from technical
complexities.
• Faster Time to Market: Get products/services to market faster with less infrastructure
burden.

04) Key Points on Virtual Machines (VMs) & Google Cloud Compute Engine
• Virtualization: Multiple VMs on the same hardware for optimized resource use.
• Google Compute Engine: IaaS offering customizable VMs with flexible billing and
sustained-use discounts.
• Billing: Pay-per-second with automatic discounts for long-term usage.
• Preemptible & Spot VMs: Cost-effective options for workloads that can be
interrupted.
• Custom VMs: Customize resources like CPU, memory, and OS for your specific
needs.

05) Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) & Containers - Key Points

• IaaS: Shared compute resources using VMs.


• Containers: Virtualize software layers, faster and efficient than VMs.
• Microservices: Small independent services using containers.
• Benefits: Fast startup, low memory, easy updates.
• Portability: Containers can run anywhere.

06) Containers, Kubernetes, and Google Cloud - Key Points


• Containers: Agility, Security, Optimization.
• Kubernetes: Manage containers on multiple hosts, improve reliability, and reduce
management overhead.
• GKE: Managed Kubernetes service for easy deployment and scaling.
• Ubie Example: Reduced costs by 20% using GKE Autopilot.
• Cloud Run: Serverless for stateless apps with automatic scaling.

Serverless Computing & Benefits - Key Points

01)

• Serverless: No server management, pay-per-use, Cloud handles infrastructure.


• FaaS: Event-driven functions, Cloud handles scaling.
• Google Cloud Products: Cloud Run, App Engine, Cloud Run Functions.
• Benefits: Cost-saving, scalability, faster deployment, resilience, and pay-for-use.
• Mashme.io Example: Low latency, global reach, and cost-effective with Google
Kubernetes Engine (GKE).

02) Application Modernization in the Cloud - Key Points

• Application = Software/program for user tasks (e.g., email, fitness).


• On-premises issues: Slow deployment, long update cycles.
• Cloud benefits: Agility, faster development, flexibility.
• Focus areas: Legacy rehosting, APIs, Apigee, Hybrid/multi-cloud.
03) Modern Cloud Application Development - Key Points

• Monolithic vs Microservices: Shift to independent microservices for flexibility.


• Deployment: Managed vs Partially Managed services for efficient operations.
• Cost: Pay-as-you-go and use prebuilt APIs.
• Resilience: Load balancing, automatic failover for high availability.
• Scalability: Cloud apps scale easily to meet demand.

04) Rehosting Legacy Applications in the Cloud - Key Points

• Rehosting (Lift and Shift): Move apps to the cloud without changes; get benefits like cost
savings, scalability, and reliability.
• Challenges: Complexity, risk, and vendor lock-in.
• Google Cloud Solutions:

• VMware Engine for VMware workloads.


• Bare Metal Solution for Oracle workloads.

05) APIs - Key Points

• APIs: Standardized instructions for software to communicate, like a waiter between


programs.
• Benefits: Enable new products, revenue streams, and partnerships.
• Example: Google Cloud APIs (search, maps, translation).

06) Apigee API Management - Key Points

• Apigee: A platform for managing APIs with security, analytics, and customizable
developer portals.
• Key Features: API security, real-time analytics, versioning, throttling.

• Example: AccuWeather used Apigee to engage developers and provide tiered API access

07) Hybrid and Multi-Cloud Solutions with GKE Enterprise - Key Points

• Hybrid Cloud: Combines on-premises and public cloud for flexibility.


• Multi-Cloud: Uses multiple public clouds for avoiding lock-in and gaining flexibility.
• GKE Enterprise: Google Cloud platform for managing Kubernetes applications across
multiple clouds with centralized management and robust security.
