Is there a similar resource / slide deck for scaling on GCP?
- luhn 9y agoSame concepts apply, you just have to map the AWS services to the GCP alternatives. Autoscaling Groups = Managed Instance Groups, ELB/ALB = Cloud Load Balancing, RDS = Cloud SQL, etc.
- dpflan 9y agoFor sure, makes sense! I'm not familiar with the GCP alternatives, and you seem to be on a roll: care to keep the equivalency mapping going? :) (We may end up crowdsourcing generation of a GCP version of these slides...)
- luhn 9y agoOff the top of my head, what I remember mentioned in the slides: * Elasticache = Managed Redis and Memcache isn't available on GCP. (I really wish it was.) * S3 = Cloud Storage * CloudFront = Cloud CDN * SQS = Cloud PubSub * Elastic Beanstalk/CodeDeploy — No GCP alternative. * Lambda = Cloud Functions (Beta) Nice thing about GCP is that they don't get creative with naming, so it's pretty easy to infer what their services do.
- vgt 9y agoResource at [0] comes to mind. There are differences, biggest one within the context of this discussion is that Google cloud carries a multi-regional and global philosophy, whereas aws tends to be zonal. This is expressed in things like global vpc (no need to tie regions or zones together), multiregional gcs, regional or global services, etc. (Work at g) [0] https://cloud.google.com/docs/compare/aws/ https://cloud.google.com/docs/compare/aws/
