There’s an API for that: Introduction
Hi I’m Jimmy welcome to the module there’s an API for that. In this MODULE you’ll look at how to build applications with managed services. So far in this course you have learned what GCP is and why should have a solid platform before beginning a GCP transfer. You HAVE also learned how GCP supports the building of apps and the different storage and database options in gcp. Now you learn about rest IPIs and the services are available to help you manage your APIs and how cloud pub_sub works. The objective of this model is to review the different application manager service options in the Cloud. To achieve this goal you need to meet the following learning objectives.
Discuss the purpose of APIsExplain the format of a REST API
Compare and contrast the Cloud Endpoints and Apigee API managed services
Identify the use case for a manage messaging serviceAnd
Discuss how Cloud Pub/Sub is used as a managed messaging service
These are the topics that make up the MODULE you’ll be getting by learning about the purpose of API and discuss rest API specifically which are currently the most popular style for services. You will explore cloud endpoints which is a distributed API management system. Before completing a hands-on lab where you will deploy a simple API with Cloud endpoints. The next topic looks at Apigee Edge which is a platform for developing and managing API proxies. You’ll then learn about the use case for managed services. Followed by cloud Pub/Sub which is Google’s manage message system. Next in this lab you will publish messages with Cloud pub/sub using the Python client library. You will end with a short quiz and a quick recap of all the topics you have learned which will take you to the end of this module.
