In this hands-on lab, you will develop a comprehensive understanding of designing and implementing complex VPC architectures and hybrid connectivity solutions. You will start by creating a shared VPC and configure Cloud NAT for outbound internet access. As part of this lab, you will also integrate on-premises resources with your Google Cloud VPC using Cloud VPN. This lab simulates a real-world scenario requiring secure, reliable, and scalable network solutions to interconnect your distributed infrastructure.
You are a cloud architect for a multinational corporation, tasked with creating a hybrid network infrastructure. Your company requires a secure, high-performance connection between their on-premises data centers and their Google Cloud instances to ensure seamless data access and transfer. Important metrics include maintaining less than 50 ms latency, ensuring a 99.9% service availability, and minimizing the operational cost of connectivity within $200/month limits.
