Course Overview
Architecting with Google Cloud Platform: Design and Process is an advanced two-day instructor-led course by Google designed for cloud solutions architects, DevOps engineers, and site reliability engineers who aim to build highly reliable and efficient solutions on Google Cloud. While not directly tied to a specific certification exam, the course supports preparation for the Professional Cloud Architect credential and reinforces architectural best practices aligned with Google’s Site Reliability Engineering (SRE) principles. Participants should have prior experience with Google Cloud, ideally through the Architecting with Google Compute Engine or Architecting with Google Kubernetes Engine courses. With cloud adoption accelerating—over 75% of enterprises now using Google Cloud for mission-critical workloads—this training equips professionals to design scalable, secure, and cost-optimized cloud solutions that meet real-world business demands.
The course emphasizes hands-on learning through labs conducted in the Google Cloud Console, where students configure and deploy real-world solutions using core services such as Compute Engine, Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE), Cloud Functions, and Cloud SQL. Participants work with Cloud Build and Terraform to automate CI/CD pipelines, implement microservices using RESTful APIs, and configure VPC networks with hybrid connectivity via Cloud Interconnect. A key lab scenario involves designing a resilient microservices architecture with SLO-based monitoring, applying blue/green deployments and canary releases to minimize downtime. Students also use Cloud Monitoring and Cloud Armor to secure applications and ensure compliance with service level objectives, gaining practical experience in optimizing both performance and cost.
Completion of Architecting with Google Cloud Platform: Design and Process strengthens readiness for the Professional Cloud Architect certification, one of the most recognized credentials in cloud computing with certified professionals earning an average of $190,204 annually in the U.S. Koenig Solutions enhances this learning with Guaranteed-to-Run scheduling, official Google Cloud courseware, and expert-led instruction to ensure deep technical mastery. Graduates are equipped to lead cloud transformation initiatives, design hybrid architectures, and implement automated, secure, and scalable cloud environments—positioning them for advancement into senior cloud architect and cloud strategy roles.
