All Cloud Storage features are discussed in this course, including hands-on demonstrations using both the web console and gsutil CLItool. SDKs and APIs are also discussed for the more developer-minded.

Laid-back Q&Asessions explain the more difficult aspects in an easily understandable way.

You will be following our pedagogically trained instructors who are subject matter expert with continuous hands-on experience of the products they teach.

This course is not designed to take you through a certification exam, but rather tells you everything you need to know about a particular product.

You can use the course to either learn about CloudStorage feature by feature, going along with the videos - or use it as a reference when trying to find information about the specific feature or how it is used.
