Completed 2 days Workshop on Google Cloud Platform

Google Cloud Platform (GCP), offered by Google, is a suite of cloud computing services that runs on the same infrastructure that Google uses internally for its end-user products, such as Google Search, Gmail, and YouTube. Alongside a set of management tools, it provides a series of modular cloud services including computing, data storage, data analytics, and machine learning.

Recently I completed a 2 days workshop on Google Cloud Platform delivered by world record holder Mr. Vimal Daga sir. But the content delivered was much more than the usual content delivered in workshops.

In just 2 days we all learnt various services offered by GCP and many other things like:
