Google Cloud SQL: Design, Deploy & Optimize Databases

The Google Cloud SQL: Design, Deploy & Optimize Databases course is designed for cloud engineers, database administrators, DevOps professionals, and solution architects who want to design, deploy, and manage relational databases using Google Cloud SQL. This course provides a comprehensive introduction to Cloud SQL on Google Cloud Platform (GCP) and covers the core concepts required to deploy and manage scalable, highly available database solutions in the cloud. You will explore how Cloud SQL supports popular database engines such as MySQL, PostgreSQL, and SQL Server, and learn how to configure, monitor, and optimize database workloads in Google Cloud environments. The course begins with the fundamentals of Cloud SQL, including service architecture, supported database engines, and the different Cloud SQL editions available for enterprise deployments. You will then explore how to design reliable database solutions by implementing high availability, backup and recovery strategies, monitoring, and disaster recovery planning. You will also learn how to deploy and optimize Cloud SQL databases, configure secure connectivity and access management, automate database operations, and implement migration and replication strategies. Additionally, the course includes hands-on demonstrations that guide you through real-world database configuration tasks such as network security setup, storage selection, cost evaluation, and maintenance configuration. Through conceptual explanations, practical demonstrations, and real-world cloud engineering scenarios, this course helps you build the skills needed to effectively design, deploy, and optimize Cloud SQL databases in Google Cloud. The course includes approximately 4-10 hours of structured video content, organized into four weeks of learning, with quizzes and knowledge checks to reinforce key concepts.
