There are many ways a person can learn the Google Cloud Platform (GCP), starting with the many courses, training, and resources available online. One of the best ways to learn is right from the Google Cloud website, as it offers many certified courses.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In this guide, we will go over all things Google Cloud to put you on a path to learning the platform.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What Is Google Cloud?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Google Cloud is a cloud computing platform that uses the same infrastructure Google is built on. Businesses use GCP to store and protect data, improve machine learning and AI, and data warehousing. GCP is also available for individual use.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What Is Google Cloud Used For?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Google Cloud was created as a way for businesses to store and manage data and build and run applications. Most businesses use Google Cloud to build and run software. This is made easier as GCP is accessed entirely online, so it does not require separate software downloads.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Many major companies use Google Cloud to streamline their systems, including Nintendo, Spotify, Twitter, PayPal, Fidelity, and FedEx.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some jobs that are available for people who are familiar with Google Cloud include:&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Google Cloud Architect<\/li><li>Google Cloud Engineer<\/li><li>Java Tech Lead with Google Cloud<\/li><li>Cloud Data Architect<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>GCP has more than 100 products, and each is designed for a specific use. These products fall into 17 categories. Below are 10 of the products that Google Cloud offers.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>AI and <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/careerkarma.com\/blog\/machine-learning-projects-for-beginners\/\"><strong>machine learning<\/strong><\/a>. These products are for businesses who want to use AI for building, conversation, and documents.&nbsp;<\/li><li><strong>API management<\/strong>. This can be used for API analytics, monetization, cloud endpoints, and as a developer portal.&nbsp;<\/li><li><strong>Data analytics<\/strong>. The products for data analytics include data catalog, cloud fusion data, Google data studio, and Google Marketing Platform.&nbsp;<\/li><li><strong>Health care and life sciences<\/strong>. These products are used in the health care and life sciences industry. They include AI for natural language, cloud life sciences, cloud healthcare API, and Apigee healthcare APIs.<\/li><li><strong>Media and gaming<\/strong>. The two GCP products in this area are Game Servers and OpenCue. They are used for game server and media management.&nbsp;<\/li><li><strong>Security and identity<\/strong>. These products are for security, including protecting identity and data. Among these services are Cloud Identity, Cloud Key Management, Firewalls, Cloud Asset Inventory, and Identity Aware Proxy.<\/li><li><strong>Networking<\/strong>. These networking products help companies manage and scale networks, such as virtual private cloud, Cloud DNS, Cloud Armor, and Cloud NAT.<\/li><li><strong>Developer tools<\/strong>. These tools are used to increase developer productivity within the GCP. The products used for this are Cloud Code, Cloud SDK, and Spring FrameWork.<\/li><li><strong>Serverless computing<\/strong>. Using this, businesses can focus on building and running apps. They can use Google app engine, workflow, and cloud functions, to help run apps.<\/li><li><strong>Storage<\/strong>. These products enable better use of Google cloud storage. They include cloud storage, persistent disk, cloud storage for firebase, and Google Workplace essentials.&nbsp;<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Learning the Google Cloud Platform<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>There are many options available to learn the Google Cloud Platform. Google offers many <a href=\"https:\/\/cloud.google.com\/training\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" rel=\"nofollow\">training and certification<\/a> options for individuals and teams at a company.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Besides those on the Google Cloud website, you can also find many other courses and training online and in-person that will help you excel at Google Cloud.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How Long Does It Take to Learn the Google Cloud Platform?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>There are many courses available to help you learn Google Cloud. These courses range in length from 30 minutes to a few hours each, and may span a period of several weeks.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to Learn Google Cloud: Step-by-Step<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Below is a rundown of how you can learn to use Google Cloud.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Create an account<\/strong>. First, you should create a free account on Google Cloud.&nbsp;<\/li><li><strong>Find courses<\/strong>. Next, find the courses that you are most interested in studying.<\/li><li><strong>Take the certification exam<\/strong>. After you completed the desired courses, you will have to pass a certification exam.&nbsp;<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>There are eight possible professional certifications, including Cloud Architect, Cloud Developer Beta, Data Engineer, Cloud DevOps Engineer, Cloud Security Engineer, Cloud Network Engineer, Collaboration Engineer, and Machine Learning Engineer.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are also three certification levels, namely, associate, professional, and user. Your level will be based on how many years of experience you have and what field you are certified in.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Best Google Cloud Courses and Training<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>There are many ways you can get trained in Google Cloud. You may want to take an online course at your own pace, attend live online classes, or sign up for a traditional classroom experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Online and In-Person Google Cloud Courses<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>There are benefits to both online and in-person studies. Many digital GCP classes are taught in real-time by certified instructors. Google\u2019s own OnCloud classes are taught by Cloud experts and provide students with hands-on labs and skill tests.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Google Cloud also partners with educational institutions to provide in-person classes. However, due to the current COVID-19 pandemic, some of these classes have been moved online.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Below is a list of virtual and in-person classes you may want to take in GCP.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a href=\"https:\/\/cloud.google.com\/training\/courses\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" rel=\"nofollow\">Google Cloud&nbsp;<\/a><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Below are some of the free courses offered by Google that include the option to attend class in person.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Courses<\/strong>:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Google Cloud Fundamentals: Core Infrastructure<\/li><li>From Data to Insights with Google Cloud Platform<\/li><li>Getting Started with Google Kubernetes Engine<\/li><li>Architecting with Google Cloud: Design and Process<\/li><li>Security in Google Cloud<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Online Google Cloud Courses<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Google Cloud&nbsp;<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Google Cloud offers 592 courses online, broken down into sections like big data, infrastructure and DevOps, machine learning, website &amp; app dev, and security, backup, and recovery.
