What is Google Cloud Platform (GCP)?
Before we begin learning about the Google Cloud Platform, we will talk about what cloud computing is. Basically, it is using someone else’s computer over the internet. Examples: GCP, AWS, IBM Cloud, etc. Some interesting features of cloud computing are as follows:
- You get computing resources on-demand and self-service. The customer has to use a simple User Interface and they get the computing power, storage requirements, and network you need without human intervention.
- You can access these cloud resources over the internet from anywhere on the globe.
- The provider of these resources has a huge collection of them and allocates them to customers out of that collection.
- The resources are elastic. If you need more resources, you can get them rapidly. If you need less, you can scale back.
- The customers pay only for what they use or reserve. If they stop using resources, they stop paying.
