Hierarchy in Google Cloud Platform

GCP For AWS Professionals Click to edit Master title style GCP accounts can be associated to a G Suite domain or Gmail user account. • This is useful since it can follow a lifecycle with Gmail. If

you delete the user, all billing accounts, projects and resources are deleted. (Follow the user) • With GSuite this works different. Billing accounts, projects, and resources follow the company life cycle. (Follow the company organization)

GCP For AWS Professionals Click to edit Master title style GCP accounts can be associated to a G Suite domain or Gmail user account. • IN AWS ---- you can also allow users outside your organization to access resources. • In GCP --- All you do is add a Google user or group to your organization, folder, or project and they get access to everything under it. • Concept of G Suite super admins ---- add themselves and others as Organization Admins

Projects and Hierarchy Click to edit Master title style GCP Has the following Hierarchy. • • • •

Organizations Folders Projects Resources

Projects and Hierarchy Click to edit Master title style • •

Folders (Cloud IAM) The Cloud IAM Folders feature lets you assign policies to resources at a level of granularity you choose. The resources in a folder can share IAM policies Google Cloud IAM is comparable to AWS Directory Service.

Projects and Hierarchy Click to edit Master title style • • • • •

An Organization resource is available for G Suite and Cloud Identity customers. Link your org domain to GCP. Think of an Organization as a hierarchy. Set access control and configuration settings at the organization or project level Billing accounts, projects, and resources are not deleted when an employee leaves the company. Follows corporate lifecycle.

AWS and GCP Accounts Click to edit Master title style Organizational Units (OUs) • • •

AWS Requires an account and GCP also requires you to signup for a Google account. In AWS you create an Organization OU account and then you can create subaccounts for organizations. (Billing) In Google you create your account and then provision resources from projects.

GCP For AWS Professionals Click to edit Master title style Networking in VMS Networking Features • Default and Custom Networks • Inbound/Outbound Firewalls • Regional load balancing and Network Load balancing • Global and multiregional Subnetworks

GCP For AWS Professionals Click to edit Master title style Global, regional, and zonal resources • Global resources include preconfigured disk images, disk snapshots and networks. • Regional resources include static external IP addresses. • Zonal resources include VM instances, their types, and disks.

GCP For AWS Professionals Click to edit Master title style VMS Supported Protocols • TCP • UDP • ICMP Note – Supports Ipv4 only Every VM Instances belongs to a network.

2.

GCP For AWS Professionals Click to edit Master title style Auto restart refers to what behavior the VM should take after a hardware failure or a system event. • If marked auto restart, the system will try to launch a replacement VM. • Auto restart does not restart the VM if it was terminated due to a user event, such as shutting down and terminating the VM. NOTE: If the VM availability policy is set to the default, live migrate, during regular system maintenance your VM will be migrated to different hardware so there is no downtime

2.

GCP For AWS Professionals Click to edit Master title style Creating VMS Instance Groups • A managed instance group uses an instance template to create or update the instances that are part of the group. • Create an instance template once & can reuse it for multiple groups and configuration. • An instance template is a global resource that is not bound to a zone or a region. • You can still specify some zonal resources in an instance template, which restricts the template to the zone, • By default, instances in the group will be placed in the Default and randomly assign IPs from the Regional Range

2.

GCP For AWS Professionals Click to edit Master title style A managed instance group use for • Autoscaling • Load balancing • Updates Two Types of Managed Instance Groups. • Zonal Managed Instance Group • Regional Managed Instance Group (Recommended) https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/instance-groups/

GCP For AWS Professionals Click to edit Master title style Creating VMS Instance Groups • Unmanaged instance groups are groups of dissimilar instances that you can arbitrarily add/remove from the group. • Unmanaged instance groups DO NOT offer autoscaling, rolling update support, or the use of instance templates. • Google recommends creating managed instance groups whenever possible. • Use unmanaged instance groups only if you need to apply load balancing to your pre-existing configurations or to groups of dissimilar instances.

2.

GCP For AWS Professionals Click to edit Master title style Images in Compute Engine • Public base Google, 3rd party vendors, and community; Premium images • Private and custom images Create new image from VM - pre-configured & installed SW Import from on-prem, workstation, or another cloud Management features: image sharing, image family, deprecation •

2.

GCP For AWS Professionals Click to edit Master title style Cloud Storage is Not a file system. Though Cloud Storage is not a file system, it can be accessed as one using third party tools such as Cloud Storage Fuse. • Simple administration and does not require capacity management • Accessed through REST APIs - Client libraries - REST APIs - gsutil (CLI)

2.

GCP For AWS Professionals Click to edit Master title style Cloud • Supports Online or offline imports • All storage classes accessed through the same APIs • Simple pricing model - Network ingress, and data transfer within a region is free - Network egress charges apply and vary by destination

2.

GCP For AWS Professionals Click to edit Master title style Cloud Storage Terminology • All data in Cloud Storage belongs inside a project. • A project consists of a set of users, a set of APIs, and billing, authentication, and monitoring settings for those APIs. • Buckets are the basic containers that hold your data. Everything that you store in Cloud Storage must be contained in a bucket. • Objects are the individual pieces of data that you store in Cloud Storage.

2.

GCP For AWS Professionals Click to edit Master title style Objects have two components: object data and object metadata. • Object data is typically a file that you want to store in Cloud Storage. • Object metadata is a collection of name-value pairs that describe various object qualities.

2.

GCP For AWS Professionals Click to edit Master title style Cloud Storage Notes • Cloud Storage uses a flat namespace to store objects. • There is only one Cloud Storage namespace, which means every bucket must have a unique name across the entire Cloud Storage namespace. • Object names must be unique only within a given bucket.

2.

GCP For AWS Professionals Click to edit Master title style AWS and GCP approach load balancing very differently. • AWS is manual service and is VPC bound • GCP is a managed service and is global. Lets discuss more in detail.

2.

GCP For AWS Professionals Click to edit Master title style Load Balancing services in GCP • • • • • •

Types of Load Balancing Network Load Balancing HTTPS Load Balancing Cross-Region Load Balancing Content-based Load Balancing Cloud SSL Proxy

2.

GCP For AWS Professionals Click to edit Master title style Load Balancing Components has three main components. • Global Networking- 100 plus POPs, 100,000 of miles of fiber network and optimized traffic ingestion. • Software Defined - SDN construct of it, includes the global forwarding rules at the Google global front end to the targeted proxy service. • Url Maps - Traffic Distribution uses and or both Cross Region or Content based mapping.

2.

GCP For AWS Professionals Click to edit Master title style Network Load Balancing in GCP is a Managed Service and deployed globally. • Network load balancing distributes incoming traffic across multiple instances - Supports non-HTTP(S) protocols (TCP/UDP) - Can be used for HTTPS traffic when you want to terminate connection on your instances (not at HTTPS load balancer) • Supports autoscaling with managed instance groups https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/load-balancing/network/

2.

GCP For AWS Professionals Click to edit Master title style Network Load Balancing • Forwarding rules consist of... Name Region IP Address (regional, not global) IP Protocol (TCP, UDP; AH, ESP, ICMP, SCTP) Ports Target-pool or target-instance

2.

GCP For AWS Professionals Click to edit Master title style

Network Load Balancing in GCP

• Target pools consist of... Name Description Region Instances (must all be in same region as target pool) SessionAffinity (NONE, CLIENT_IP_PROT, CLIENT_IP) BackupPool FailoverRatio Each URL is specified by a virtual IP and port in a global forwarding rule.

2.

GCP For AWS Professionals Click to edit Master title style HTTP(S) Load Balancing • HTTP(S) Load Balancing distributes HTTP(S) traffic among instance groups based on proximity to user or URL or both • Autoscalers can be attached to HTTP(S)load balancers

https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/load-balancing/network/

2.

GCP For AWS Professionals Click to edit Master title style HTTP(S) Load Balancing • HTTP(S) The following resources comprise a load balancer Global Forwarding Rule Target Proxy (w SSL certificate resource for HTTPS proxy) URL map Backend Service and Backends Health Check • The load balancer leverages additional resources Global IP Address (ephemeral or static) One or more Instance Groups

2.

GCP For AWS Professionals Click to edit Master title style Global Forwarding • A global forwarding rule provides a single global IP address for an application • The rule routes traffic by IP address, port, and protocol to an HTTP or HTTPS target proxy • A global forwarding rule can only forward to a single port • Global forwarding rules can only be used by an HTTP(S) load balancer https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/load-balancing/http/globalforwarding-rules

2.

GCP For AWS Professionals Click to edit Master title style Target proxies route incoming HTTP(requests) based on URL maps and backend service configurations • HTTPS target proxy terminates client SSL session • HTTPS target proxies require configured SSL certificate resources

https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/load-balancing/http/targetproxies

2.

GCP For AWS Professionals Click to edit Master title style Backend services • A health check • Session affinity settings • One or more backends A backend comprises • An instance group (managed or unmanaged) • A balancing mode (CPU utilization or Rate in request/second) • A capacity scaler (ceiling % of CPU/Rate targets) • A backend service may have up to 500 endpoints per zone

2.

GCP Cloud Architect Overview Click to edit Master title style • Connection draining delays the termination of an instance until remaining connections are closed - New connections to the instance are prevented - Instance preserves existing sessions until they end OR a designate timeout is reached (1 to 3600 seconds) - Minimizes interruption for users • Connection draining is triggered when an instance is removed from an instance group - Manual removal, resizing, autoscaling https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/load-balancing/enablingconnection-draining

2.

GCP For AWS Professionals Click to edit Master title style Cloud SSL Proxy • Cloud SSL proxy alt type of load balancing - non-HTTP(S) traffic - Performs global load balancing, routing clients to the closest instance with capacity • Cloud SSL proxy advantages - Intelligent routing - Reduced CPI load on instances - Certificate management - Security patching

2.

GCP For AWS Professionals Click to edit Master title style Cross Region Load Balancing HTTP/HTTPS only Cross-region using a single global IP address Requests routed to the closest region Automatically reroutes to next closest once capacity is reached Eliminates need for DNS-based load balancing

2.

GCP For AWS Professionals Click to edit Master title style Content Based Load Balancing HTTP/HTTPS only Create multiple backend services to handle content types Add path rules to backend services - /video for video services - /static for static content Configure different instance types for different content types

2.

GCP For AWS Professionals Click to edit Master title style What type of load balancing? • HTTP, HTTPS, TCP, and SSL load balancing • Network Load Balancing

2.

GCP For AWS Professionals Click to edit Master title style Instance Groups Manage Groups of VMs Three Types 1. Unmanaged 2. Managed Instance Group (Zonal) 3. Managed Instance Group (Regional) Unmanaged instance groups contain dissimilar instances and wont. - Autoscaling - Rolling updates - Instance creation using instance templates

https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/instance-groups/creatinggroups-of-managed-instances

2.

GCP For AWS Professionals Click to edit Master title style • Notes to know…… • Google Cloud SSL proxy terminates user SSL (TLS) connections at the global load balancing layer, then balances the connections across your instances via SSL or TCP. • Cloud SSL proxy is intended for non-HTTP(S) traffic. • For HTTP(S) traffic, HTTP(S) load balancing is recommended instead. https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/load-balancing/tcp-ssl/

2.

GCP For AWS Professionals Click to edit Master title style Lets Compare with AWS • AWS uses instance-based load balancing . Itis deployed as processes on the instances. • Needs a warm up time during peak demands. • Bound to a VPC and does not use a single global IP address. • Route 53 to route to nearest load balancer • Region Failure results in load balancer failure. Manual process to resolve

Autoscaling

2.

GCP For AWS Professionals Click to edit Master title style Autoscaling • Part of the Compute Engine API • Used to automatically scale number of instances in a managed instance group based on workload • Create one autoscaler per managed instance group • Autoscalers can be used with zone-based managed instance groups or regional managed instance groups • Fast typically ~ 1 min windows https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/instance-groups/distributinginstances-with-regional-instancegroups#provisioning_your_autoscaler_configuration

2.

GCP For AWS Professionals Click to edit Master title style • Autoscaling • When the Autoscaler scales down, it determines the number of virtual machines it needs to shut down • Before an instance is terminated validate remaining connections, gracefully shut down any applications or application servers, uploading logs, etc. • Shutdown Scripts….

2.

GCP For AWS Professionals Click to edit Master title style • Autoscaling in AWS is the same essentially as GCP • In AWS and GCP autoscaling uses a bunch of VMs behind a load balancer with a policy and health check and then calls it an auto scaling group • VMs are targets • Spin config – Warm up config in AWS (Instance Template in GCP) • Both allow you to define instance machine type, disk image, zone, and startup scripts.

2.

GCP For AWS Professionals Click to edit Master title style • Autoscaling in AWS is the same essentially as GCP Big difference though in the following. • GCP does not need step adjustments and is more streamlined
