How it works

The route from commit to production

Watch the route draw itself: this is the delivery path you will build and automate.

1

Code

Developers push changes to a Git repository.

Git · GitHub
2

Build

Pipelines compile, test and package the app.

Cloud Build
3

Package

Container images are stored and versioned.

Artifact Registry
4

Deploy

Apps roll out to Google Cloud with code.

GKE · Cloud Run
5

Observe

Logs, metrics and alerts keep releases healthy.

Cloud Monitoring
Why DevOps with GCP

Skills for cloud-native teams

Teams building containers and data-driven apps look for engineers who can release fast and keep systems reliable.

CI

Automate every release

Turn each code change into a tested, packaged and deployed release with Cloud Build, so shipping becomes routine instead of risky.

IaC

Infrastructure as code

Create Google Cloud resources from files you can review and reuse.

K8s

Kubernetes first

Run containers on GKE, a popular managed way to use Kubernetes.

Run

Serverless options

Deploy services to Cloud Run without managing servers.

!

Monitor and respond

Logs, metrics and alerts help you find problems early.

⇄

Dev and Ops together

Understand both sides, so teams hand off less and ship more.

$

Cost aware

Learn to size and clean up resources so cloud bills stay under control.

FAQ

Questions people ask

Do I need coding experience?

No. The course starts with Linux and scripting basics and builds up step by step.

What is the difference between DevOps and cloud computing?

Cloud computing provides the infrastructure, while DevOps is the way teams automate building, testing and releasing software on it. This course covers both.

Why learn DevOps on Google Cloud?

Kubernetes grew out of work at Google, and GCP is popular for container, data and analytics workloads. The core DevOps ideas also carry over to other clouds.

Will this help me prepare for Google Cloud certification?

Yes. The labs cover many core Google Cloud and DevOps topics, and you can build on them with extra exam practice.

Will I do hands-on projects?

Yes. You build pipelines, containers and cloud infrastructure that you can show in your portfolio.

Do GCP labs cost money?

Many labs fit within free-tier limits or trial credits for new accounts, and you will learn to clean up resources so charges stay low.
