Delivers what is promised with the basic for GCP, but stays in the middle of practical knowledge and theoretical.

It is very basic. How about a crash course for people with experience in other cloud offerings like Azure or AWS?

Entry level person to Cloud. Going for a big class but wanted to get a jump start on terminology so I can work faster with my Cloud Team and understand what they are saying. The only wish I had was more focus on IAM and understanding roles as security and roles are important. Otherwise the class worked for me to get the jump and also was very easy for me to follow along creating my own account.

The course in an OK take on intro to Google cloud. For an hour long course I think the facilitator spent too much time on billing, etc.

It gives the flavors of various GCP available services and a kick start to those who know anything about GCP. However there is no explanation on what cloud is and why rather its a straight hands on experience class which is much required. He have covered as much as all the necessary things under GCP

Good overview of some of the key services. Adding some details on other key services/resources like VPC, BigTable would have been great.

A good course for people with busy schedule and would want to learn the very basic of GCP. Highly recommend!

Esperaba que al ser un curso básico, me tratará temas menos específicos de los servicios y mas general de GCP (manejo de cuentas o proyectos, servicios en general, calculadora de costos, etc) una visión mas general de GCP

Very base level stuff and thats a good thing for new cloud learners like myself. Good overall. Could've used more energy and less talk about pricing

Well done. Paced well. Informative. Would appreciate any References where to look for additional information. Also could use examples on how companies deploy services tied to the examples vs. personal uses. Thanks for creating.
