Memo: Learn Infra and App modernization GCP

this section focus on Infrastructure and App modernization service on GCP

<Compute instance>

• GCloud Compute Engine (GCE): IaaS, Virtual Machine.
• Bare Metal Solution: hardware to run specialize workload with low latency.
• GCloud VMware Engine: migrate and run VMware workload.
• App Engine: Paas | serverless, build and deploy app without worry infra eg. Heroku with 2 types:
  1. Standard: start up fast, can scale to zero, no backgroud process, run with upload code.
  2. Flexible: start up a min, must have at least once instance running, have backgroud process, run with upload docker container.
• Cloud function: FaaS single-purpose function that respond to event

<Container>

• GKE: container management on K8S
• Cloud Run: serverless, run statless container
• Cloud Build: CICD pipeline (build, test, deploy container)
• GCloud Container Registry (GCR): store Docker image
• GCloud Artifact Registry (GAR): store Container image
• Optimize container OS: optimize OS boot time for container

<Networking>

• Virtual Private Cloud (VPC): GCloud network where can launch GCloud resource.
• Cloud Ammor: Protect DDoS Attack.
• Cloud LoadBalancing: Distributed traffic access across app.
• Cloud NAT: provide app instance access from internet without Public IP.
• Cloud CDN: Cache content close to customer.
• Cloud Interconnect: connect on-premis and cloud.
• Cloud VPN: secure connect throug IPSec VPN tunnel.

<Management>

• Apigee: Api management service.
• Cloud Deployment management: GCloud’s IaC service.

<Migration>

3 types of migration:

1. Lift and ship: No modify application, Fast migration strategy.
2. Improve and move: Refactor application (modernize workload), Slower.
3. Rip and Replace: Rebuild from scratch (completely redesign & rewrite), take longtime.

4 migration path:

1.Assess: Defined and know workload.
2. Plan: Plan how to move include identity management, org, project structure and networking.
3. Deploy: Design, implement and execute deployment process.
4. Optimize: Take full advantage of cloud-native to expand bussiness

Migration Compute

• Migrate VM: migrate on-premise workload to GCE.
• Migrate Anthos: migrate on-premise workload to container GKE.
• Migrate Container: migrate on-premise container worklaod to GCloud.
• Mirgrate VMware: migrate on-premise VMware to GCloud VMware.

(additional)Recap: Migration database

• Database Migration Service (DMS): migrate on-premise database to CloudSQL

(additional)Recap: Migration Storage

• Storage Transfer service: migrate storage data (s3 to GCS)
• Transfer Appliance: migrate TB / PB data and faster ship with physical drive

<Ai & ML>

• Vertex Ai: e2e AI solution for ML and DL.
• AutoML: Train ML model for predict.
• Vision Ai: image recognition.
