============================================

Modern software systems have become increasingly complex. Cloud platforms have helped tame some of the complexity by providing both managed and unmanaged services. So it’s no surprise that companies have shifted workloads to cloud platforms. As cloud platforms continue to grow, knowing when and how to use these services is important for developers. 

This course is intended to help prepare individuals seeking to pass the Google Cloud Professional Cloud Developer Certification Exam. The Cloud Developer Certification requires a working knowledge of building cloud-native systems on GCP. That covers a wide variety of topics, from designing distributed systems to debugging apps with Stackdriver. 

This course focuses on the third section of the exam overview, more specifically the first five points, which cover deploying applications using GCP compute services.
