Google has retired this exam and all associated materials, meaning some links mentioned in this CBT Nuggets course won't work.

Google Cloud Platform enables developers to build, test, and deploy applications on Google’s highly-scalable and reliable infrastructure — the same infrastructure Google uses internally to host products such as Gmail, YouTube, and Search.
