Best Practice

DevOps capabilities

Explore the technical, process, and cultural capabilities, which drive higher software delivery and organizational performance.

Quickstart

Getting started with Cloud Monitoring

Use Cloud Monitoring for visibility into the performance, availability, and overall health of your cloud-powered applications.

Best Practice

Jenkins on Google Kubernetes Engine

Jenkins on Google Kubernetes Engine allows you to improve software delivery performance with continuous integration, continuous delivery, and automated deployment.

Best Practice

Defining SLOs

Service level objectives (SLOs) help teams define a target level of reliability. SLOs allow teams to monitor for business decisions and to experiment safely.

Tutorial

Creating continuous delivery pipelines

Use Google Cloud Deploy and Google Kubernetes Engine to create continuous delivery pipelines, allowing for change approvals and automated deployments and rollbacks.

Tutorial

Cloud Monitoring metric export

Export metrics to BigQuery for long-term analysis, allowing you to improve monitoring and observability, monitor for business decisions, and create visual displays.

Best Practice

Using Terraform with Google Cloud

Provision Google Cloud resources declaratively with Terraform.
