16+
choices:
17+
- content: "Azure Data Box"
18+
isCorrect: false
19+
explanation: "Incorrect. Azure Data Box is a data appliance transfer service for migrating large quantities of data into Azure. It's not for ongoing data storage and serving."
20+
- content: "Azure Blob Storage"
21+
isCorrect: true
22+
explanation: "Correct. Azure Blob Storage is optimized for storing unstructured data such as videos and serving it quickly."
23+
- content: "Azure Functions"
24+
isCorrect: false
25+
explanation: "Incorrect. Azure Functions is a service that hosts custom code for serverless execution. The service isn't designed to store and serve videos."
26+
- content: "You regularly use the Operation Suite in Google Cloud to examine users and their actions to spot any inappropriate permissions. You're migrating your cloud VMs to Azure. What tool can you use for the same purpose?"
27+
choices:
28+
- content: "Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS)"
29+
isCorrect: false
30+
explanation: "Incorrect. AKS is an implementation of the Kubernetes container orchestration system. You can't use it to monitor user actions."
31+
- content: "Event Grid"
32+

33+
explanation: "Incorrect. Event Grid is an event management and distribution tool. You can't use it to monitoring user actions."
34+
- content: "Azure Monitor"
35+
isCorrect: true
36+
explanation: "Correct. By monitoring your resources and users, you can spot when permissions, roles, and policies might be incomplete or inappropriate"
37+
- content: "You want to deploy containers into Kubernetes clusters hosted in both Google Cloud GKE and Azure AKS. Which declarative file format can you use?"
38+
choices:
39+
- content: "Bicep"
40+
isCorrect: false
41+
explanation: "Incorrect. Bicep is a declarative deployment file format but isn't supported in Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE)."
42+
- content: "Kubernetes manifests"

Google Cloud Platform (GCP) is similar to Microsoft Azure in that it offers a growing range of AI, compute, storage, database, and other services. While both platforms have similarities in their capabilities, the implementations of cloud services are often different. When planning a migration for some or all of your workloads, you need to understand important concepts, such as identity and access management (IAM), governance, IaaS services, storage, and more.
2+
3+
Suppose you work for a global cycling retailer. Until recently, you hosted most of your business-critical systems on GCP but a merger with a retailing competitor requires you to understand their cloud systems. The competitors cloud systems are hosted on Azure. You want to investigate the differences and similarities between Azure and GCP and determine how systems equivalent to your GCP architecture can be deployed in Azure.
4+
5+
In this module, you learn about key areas in Azure, and how they map to Google Cloud services.

> The services offered by each platform aren't identical, or called by the same name. For a comparison of the services offered by GCP and Azure, see [Google Cloud to Azure services comparison](/azure/architecture/gcp-professional/services)
11+
12+
## Learning objectives
13+
14+
At the end of this module, you're able to:
15+
16+
- Understand identity and access management (IAM) in Azure compared to GCP.
17+
- Compare governance services on GCP with Azure.
18+
- Understand the differences between GCP and Azure Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) options.
19+
- Compare database services in GCP with Azure.
20+
- Compare event driven architecture and messaging services in GCP and Azure.
21+
- Compare Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE) and Azure Kubernetes Services (AKS).
22+
- Understand where to find more information about GCP equivalent Azure services.
