Serverless Application Development with App Engine on Cloud Platform

Deploying applications to the cloud shouldn't require managing complex infrastructure or provisioning virtual servers. App Engine offers a fully managed serverless hosting environment that lets you focus entirely on writing your application code. This course guides you from cloud hosting fundamentals to deploying production-ready serverless applications. You will understand how to choose the right environment for your workload, configure application scaling, and integrate modern logging and monitoring to keep your apps running smoothly. What you'll learn: - Understand the core architecture of App Engine and how serverless computing simplifies deployment. - Compare and select between the Standard and Flexible environments based on your application needs. - Configure automatic scaling, traffic splitting, and versioning for zero-downtime updates. - Apply modern observability practices using integrated cloud logging and monitoring tools. - Secure your application using built-in identity management and custom domain configurations. - Deploy web applications and microservices using clean, step-by-step configuration files. You will start with fundamental cloud concepts and terminology before moving on to configuration files, deployment commands, and application management strategies. Through clear text-based explanations and structured configuration examples, you will learn to manage real-world serverless workloads. This course is designed for software developers, system administrators, and cloud beginners who want to build and host applications without the overhead of managing servers.
