I work as a Cloud Engineer in a Cloud company; which requires that I have experience/expertise in multiple areas.
My daily activities make use of my troubleshooting skills for servers (Linux and Windows) and network devices (Cisco, F5 Networks, and Brocade). Our company was an early adopter of SDN (Software Defined Networking) solutions and I have been very involved with this implementation using the VMWare NSX software (and its predecessor - Nicira). I am also called upon to deliver classroom training for other teams in my company.
I also write code (python only) for our Infrastructure for proactive reasons.
I consider myself as an IT enthusiast.

I recently completed Azure and AWS training on Udemy. The content and presentation was much better there compared to this course. The Quiz portion is very inconsistent. Some sections do not have any questions/quiz. Could have been better. Overall a very good course. thank you.

It is simply amazing with detailed explanation on core concepts. Note : Need to be little bit slower and images and the content looks blur in most of the sections which needs to be corrected.

The course was really good to get an introduction and mid-level knowledge to Google Cloud Platform with practical demo in each of topics discussed. It goes into the level of detail that is needed to get an fair understanding on GCP.

Overall, it is good training for beginners however the course contains many technology such as Virtualization, Storage, Network, Access and Database. Most of them will not have much knowledge in all technology, my case, I have good knowledge in Virtualization, Network and Storage however I dont have knowledge in DB, I could not understand the concept properly moreover he is going very fast, unable follow in his level. Also he did not cover kubernetes, docker and commands.. Overall good training. Thank you!!

This course provides good insights to Google Cloud Platform and does do a good job about explaining some of the Google services and components of GCP. If you already have experience of other public cloud domains, this course could become too basic. And for anyone trying to get information to clear Google Certified Cloud Architect - Professional exam by means of studying this course, then you are far from the reality. Bottom line: Good for beginners, great explanation throughout and the instructor has always been crisp on the points with the explanations all throughout.

The course completes basic/somewhat dept aspect of GCP platform. The author is direct to the point and well-managed demo and quiz made sure that you at least prepare for GCP even not having any prior knowledge. The only -ve point is, the course needs to up to date with current GCP doc, e.g some of IAM features is updated in the doc but the course still uses old IAM service rule...

I took this course as an addition to another course to make sure that I really understood GCP for the exam. I appreciate all of the demos and explanations of concepts and products especially VPC and Storage. I am happy to say that I was able to pass the Cloud Engineer exam today so thank you!!
