I have completed 2 days GCP Workshop organised by Linux World Informatics Pvt. Ltd. under the guidance of Mr. Vimal Daga Sir.

Here are some concepts which I have learnt during this workshop.

GCP (Google Cloud Platform):

Google Cloud Platform is essentially a public cloud-based machine whose services are delivered to customers on an as-you-go basis, by way of service components. A public cloud lets you leverage its resources to empower the applications you build, as well as to reach a broader base of customers.

Initially, GCP provides a 3-month free trial with $300 credit to use with any Google Cloud services.
