Study Notes
Cloud VPN in Google Cloud
- Allows secure connection of private on-premises network to Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) network on Google Cloud Platform (GCP)
- Connection established over the public internet
- Uses IPsec to create an encrypted tunnel to protect data in transit
Direct Peering in Google Cloud
- Direct Peering enables a direct connection between your network and Google's edge network.
- This connection allows for the exchange of high volumes of traffic between your infrastructure and Google's services.
- Google's services include Google Cloud Platform (GCP) and other Google products.
- Direct Peering facilitates the exchange of traffic between your infrastructure and Google's services, including GCP and other Google products.
Carrier Peering in Google Cloud Platform
