Articles on Software Design and Architecture.
In this summarized article, we will see how we can securely design systems in Google Cloud Platform. We will start with Security Concepts, Securing People and then move on to the Securing Machine Access and Encryption topics.
Disaster planning involves creating strategies and mechanisms to mitigate the impact of unforeseen events, such as natural disasters, system failures, cyberattacks, or human errors, on the functionality, availability, and integrity of computer systems and data. It aims to ensure business continuity and minimize downtime in the face of adverse circumstances.
A VM instance can transition through many states as part of its lifecycle. This article will give you a brief overview of GCP VM lifecycle stages and explain how it will transition in each stage.
The article will highlight a few of the proven strategies for designing reliable systems in case of single point of failures, correlated failures, cascading failures, query of death overload, lazy deletion, etc. with solutions. In this era of cloud designing reliable systems are very important and critical to encounter system/cloud failure as the users rapidly increasing if the system gains popularity overnight. These strategies mainly focus on Google Cloud; however, you can employ these strategies in any cloud including private cloud.
In Google Cloud, VPC networks are global, and you can either create auto mode networks and have one subnet per region or create your own custom mode network, where you get to specify which region to create a subnet in. Resources across regions can communicate using their internal IP addresses without any added interconnect. For example, the diagram on the right shows two subnets in different regions, with a server on each subnet.
