About this course
Google App Engine is a fully managed serverless environment that manages infrastructure concerns by provisioning servers and scaling your instances based on demand, allowing you to focus on code. You'll begin by learning how to use traffic splitting to distribute traffic across multiple services, use Traffic Migration to route requests, map custom domains to your apps, and secure your custom domain with SSL. Next, you'll learn how to manage your app resources, update your scaling configurations, set parameters with the API, and deploy versions of your app to App Engine. Finally, you'll learn how to create and view a Cloud Run service, and view a list of revisions to a service. This course is one of a collection of courses that prepares learners for the Google Cloud Associate Cloud Engineer certification.
