Planning for a Google Workspace Deployment

The final course in the Google Workspace Administration series is Planning for a Google Workspace Delivery. This course will introduce you to Google's deployment process and best practices. As the Technical Project Leader at Galaxy Sola, Jon will play the role. Your task is to provide Google Workspace to users without causing any disruption. The core technical areas of provisioning and mail flow, data migration, coexistence, and coexistence will be your focus. Tunj, the I.T. Manager, will help you to review your options and then together, you will create a deployment strategy.

The importance of Change Management in a Google Workspace installation will be discussed. This is to ensure that users have a seamless transition to Google Workspace, and reap the benefits of work transformation via support, communications, and training. This course is only a course in theory. You won't be able to do any hands-on exercises. If you don't have a Google Workspace trial, cancel it now to avoid paying unnecessary charges. Participants will be able:

- Explain Google's three-phase deployment process. - Explain how Google Workspace handles domains of different types and describe the process for provisioning them.
- How users, groups, and other objects are provisioned into Google Workspace.
Discuss mail routing types, and discuss how routing should be configured in each phase of a Google Workspace deployment.
- Discuss migration options and make recommendations based on organizational preferences/needs.
- How to migrate mail, contacts and calendar data using Google Workspace Migration For Microsoft Exchange (GWMME).
Discuss coexistence issues, in particular with regard to calendar coexistence.
- Explain Change Management, people's resistance to change and the reasons that projects fail when Change Management has not been considered.
