Architecting Hybrid Cloud Infrastructure with Anthos

The Architecting Hybrid Cloud Infrastructure with Anthos course prepares participants to modernize, manage, and observe their containerized applications using Kubernetes across Google Cloud, AWS, Azure, and on-premises. Through presentations and hands-on labs, participants explore the capabilities of Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE), Connect Agent, Anthos Service Mesh, and Anthos Config Management. Participants learn how to work with containerized applications even when the applications are split across multiple clusters, hosted by multiple cloud providers, or on-premises. The course covers each layer of the Anthos technology stack and addresses issues such as load balancing clusters running in Google Cloud, automating policies and security at scale with Anthos Config Management, and building multi-cluster network architectures with Anthos Service Mesh. This course helps prepare for the Professional Cloud DevOps Engineer Certification exam .
