Course Description
Cloud Architects
Exam GuideSection 1: Designing and planning a cloud solution architecture (~24% of the exam)1.1 Designing a solution infrastructure that meets business requirements. Considerations include: ● Business use cases and product strategy ● Cost optimization ● Supporting the application design ● Integration with external systems ● Movement of data ● Design decision trade-offs ● Build, buy, modify, or deprecate ● Success measurements (e.g., key performance indicators [KPI], return on investment [ROI], metrics) ● Compliance and observability1.2 Designing a solution infrastructure that meets technical requirements. Considerations include: ● High availability and failover design ● Elasticity of cloud resources with respect to quotas and limits ● Scalability to meet growth requirements ● Performance and latency1.3 Designing network, storage, and compute resources. Considerations include: ● Integration with on-premises/multicloud environments ● Cloud-native networking (VPC, peering, firewalls, container networking) ● Choosing data processing technologies ● Choosing appropriate storage types (e.g., object, file, databases) ● Choosing compute resources (e.g., preemptible, custom machine type, specialized workload) ● Mapping compute needs to platform products1.4 Creating a migration plan (i.e., documents and architectural diagrams). Considerations include: ● Integrating solutions with existing systems ● Migrating systems and data to support the solution ● Software license mapping ● Network planning ● Testing and proofs of concept ● Dependency management planning1.5 Envisioning future solution improvements. Considerations include: ● Cloud and technology improvements ● Evolution of business needs ● Evangelism and advocacySection 2: Managing and provisioning a solution infrastructure (~15% of the exam)2.1 Configuring network topologies. Considerations include: ● Extending to on-premises environments (hybrid networking) ● Extending to a multicloud environment that may include Google Cloud to Google Cloud communication ● Security protection (e.g. intrusion protection, access control, firewalls)2.2 Configuring individual storage systems. Considerations include: ● Data storage allocation ● Data processing/compute provisioning ● Security and access management ● Network configuration for data transfer and latency ● Data retention and data life cycle management ● Data growth planning2.3 Configuring compute systems. Considerations include: ● Compute resource provisioning ● Compute volatility configuration (preemptible vs. standard) ● Network configuration for compute resources (Google Compute Engine, Google Kubernetes Engine, serverless networking) ● Infrastructure orchestration, resource configuration, and patch management ● Container orchestrationSection 3: Designing for security and compliance (~18% of the exam)3.1 Designing for security. Considerations include: ● Identity and access management (IAM) ● Resource hierarchy (organizations, folders, projects) ● Data security (key management, encryption, secret management) ● Separation of duties (SoD) ● Security controls (e.g., auditing, VPC Service Controls, context aware access, organization policy) ● Managing customer-managed encryption keys with Cloud Key Management Service ● Remote access3.2 Designing for compliance. Considerations include: ● Legislation (e.g., health record privacy, children’s privacy, data privacy, and ownership) ● Commercial (e.g., sensitive data such as credit card information handling, personally identifiable information [PII]) ● Industry certifications (e.g., SOC 2) ● Audits (including logs)Section 4: Analyzing and optimizing technical and business processes (~18% of the exam)4.1 Analyzing and defining technical processes. Considerations include: ● Software development life cycle (SDLC) ● Continuous integration / continuous deployment ● Troubleshooting / root cause analysis best practices ● Testing and validation of software and infrastructure ● Service catalog and provisioning ● Business continuity and disaster recovery4.2 Analyzing and defining business processes. Considerations include: ● Stakeholder management (e.g. influencing and facilitation) ● Change management ● Team assessment / skills readiness ● Decision-making processes ● Customer success management ● Cost optimization / resource optimization (capex / opex)4.3 Developing procedures to ensure reliability of solutions in production (e.g., chaos engineering, penetration testing)Section 5: Managing implementation (~11% of the exam)5.1 Advising development/operation teams to ensure successful deployment of the solution. Considerations include: ● Application development ● API best practices ● Testing frameworks (load/unit/integration) ● Data and system migration and management tooling5.2 Interacting with Google Cloud programmatically. Considerations include: ● Google Cloud Shell ● Google Cloud SDK (gcloud, gsutil and bq) ● Cloud Emulators (e.g. Cloud Bigtable, Datastore, Spanner, Pub/Sub, Firestore)Section 6: Ensuring solution and operations reliability (~14% of the exam)6.1 Monitoring/logging/profiling/alerting solution6.2 Deployment and release management6.3 Assisting with the support of deployed solutions6.4 Evaluating quality control measures
