Essential Google Cloud Infrastructure: Core Services

Korshub take

This is the hands-on core of Google Cloud's infrastructure curriculum, built around video lectures paired with real labs rather than slides alone. It's pitched at an intermediate level, assuming you already know roughly what cloud computing is and are ready to actually deploy something — networks, Compute Engine instances, storage, and the IAM policies that secure them.

Who it's for

Learners with some cloud or IT fundamentals who want practical reps configuring Google Cloud Platform infrastructure, not just conceptual familiarity for an interview.

What you'll practice

• Deploying infrastructure components: networks, systems, applications
• Identity and access management and role-based access control
• Cloud storage options and capacity management decisions

It's a heavily used course — over 152,926 learners — reflecting how central this material is to Google Cloud's broader certification path.
