    GCP - Professional Cloud Network Engineer Study Guide

    1: Designing and planning a Google Cloud VPC network

    This chapter covers the design and planning decisions that precede any Google Cloud network build: selecting network tiers, structuring VPC ownership, sizing IP address space, choosing load balancers, planning GKE connectivity, mapping IAM to network roles, and reaching managed services privately. It treats each choice as a trade-off among reachability, cost, blast radius, and operational scale rather than a single correct answer.
