Task 6: Review the Google Cloud interface

Cloud Shell is an excellent interactive environment for exploring Google Cloud using Google Cloud SDK commands like gcloud and gsutil.

You can install the Google Cloud SDK on a computer or on a VM instance in Google Cloud. The gcloud and gsutil commands can be automated using a scripting language like bash (Linux) or Powershell (Windows). You can also explore using the command-line tools in Cloud Shell, and then use the parameters as a guide for re-implementing in the SDK using one of the supported languages.

The Google Cloud interface consists of two parts: the Cloud Console and Cloud Shell.

The Console:

    Provides a fast way to get things done
    Presents options to you, instead of requiring you to know them
    Performs behind-the-scenes validation before submitting the commands

Cloud Shell provides:

    Detailed control
    Complete range of options and features
    A path to automation through scripting
