Optimizing Cost with Google Cloud Storage

About this course

This is a self-paced lab that takes place in the Google Cloud console. In this lab you will configure Cloud Monitoring to observe bucket object access and deploy a Cloud Function to migrate objects from a Regional bucket to a Nearline bucket. You trigger a Cloud Function to migrate a storage bucket from a Cloud Monitoring alerting policy to a less expensive storage class.

What you will learn

• Create two storage buckets, add a file to the serving-bucket, and generate traffic against it.
• Create a Cloud Monitoring dashboard to visualize bucket utilization.
• Deploy a Cloud Function to migrate the idle bucket to a less expensive storage clas
