My Approach to understand GCP
Part I: Identifying right product
My Goal is to develop a SpringBoot ‘hello world’ application and Deploy it into GCP
Background Knowledge : No prior knowledge about GCP/AWS and Azure. But I believe I have some idea how these are working and workflow.
I started with creating an account and added credit card information. You can also use your account number to set up first billing .
Once I set up all these things :
Started to read documentation one by one.[ I did’t have an idea where to start and what to do].
My first task was to understand about GCP and their products,tools and naming conventions
Read about GCP free tier Products
I have read about Cloud Run, FireStore,Cloud Engine, App Engine. Etc. And now I know there is some thing called App Engine to fulfill my first goal .
App Engine is a fully managed, serverless platform for developing and hosting web applications at scale.
As a free tier user I go for their Standard Environment
I WILL DISCUSS HOW I IMPLEMENTED FIRST GCP PROJECT IN NEXT STORY
