Suggested tutorials

The following are some suggestions for first quickstarts (basic tutorials) and tutorials to follow when getting started with Cloud de Confiance by S3NS. Or go exploring!

Differences from Google Cloud

Note the following important differences from Google Cloud when following tutorials:

• Cloud Build is not yet available in Cloud de Confiance by S3NS.
• BigQuery public datasets are not available in Cloud de Confiance by S3NS.
• Cloud Shell is not yet available in Cloud de Confiance by S3NS. Instead, set up your development environment locally or on a Cloud de Confiance by S3NS VM with the following software:
  • Install Go
  • Install Docker
  • Install and set up the gcloud CLI following the instructions in Set up the Google Cloud CLI

• Default networks are not automatically created in new projects by design. Use these commands for manual setup before following the tutorials if you have not already followed our minimal setup:

  gcloud compute networks create default
  gcloud compute firewall-rules create default-allow-internal --allow=tcp:1-65535,udp:1-65535,icmp --source-ranges 10.128.0.0/9
  gcloud compute firewall-rules create default-allow-ssh --allow=tcp:22
  gcloud compute firewall-rules create default-allow-rdp --allow=tcp:3389
  gcloud compute firewall-rules create default-allow-icmp --allow=icmp
  

Particularly if you choose to explore beyond this recommended list of tutorials, be aware that additional differences from Google Cloud may apply to them. If in doubt, consult the differences page for the relevant service.

Simplest quickstart (Compute Engine)

Create a Compute Engine VM and connect to it using the Cloud de Confiance console:

• Create a Linux VM instance
• Create a Windows VM instance

Simple application (Cloud SQL and Compute Engine)

Deploy a sample app on a Compute Engine VM connected to a SQL instance. Choose between the MySQL and PostgreSQL versions of this tutorial (SQL Server is not available in Cloud de Confiance by S3NS).

• Connect to Cloud SQL for MySQL from Compute Engine
• Connect to Cloud SQL for PostgreSQL from Compute Engine

Containerized application (Cloud SQL and GKE):

Deploy a sample app in a Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE) cluster connected to a SQL instance. Choose between the MySQL and PostgreSQL versions of this tutorial (SQL Server is not available in Cloud de Confiance by S3NS).

• Connect to Cloud SQL for MySQL from GKE
• Connect to Cloud SQL for PostgreSQL from GKE

Because Cloud Build is not yet available, in both tutorials you'll need to build the sample app with Docker (rather than gcloud builds) before pushing to Artifact Registry.

Data analytics workload (BigQuery)

Test loading, analysing and exporting data with BigQuery. Note that BigQuery public datasets are not currently available in Cloud de Confiance by S3NS. To follow tutorials that use them, we suggest that you export the sample tables from Google Cloud and import the tables locally in your own Cloud de Confiance by S3NS datasets.

• Cloud de Confiance console quickstart.
• Command line quickstart
• Client libraries quickstart

Resilient application (Compute Engine)

Use autohealing to build a highly available application.
