Benefits

Google Cloud remains in the top three cloud platforms, and storage remains a high priority for individuals and businesses. In this course, instructor Mark Johnson covers the fundamentals of storage on the Google Cloud platform (GCP). Mark begins with an overview of object storage on GCP. Google Cloud Storage is geo-redundant, meaning your media is delivered by the closest server – reducing latency and improving page speed. Scale your WordPress website across multiple servers without the need of synchronizing media files. Native integration between Google Cloud Storage and WordPress. $300 free trial from Google Cloud.
