Great data experiences don’t happen by accident — they’re modeled, optimized, and scaled with intent. In this challenge, you’ll build a strong foundation with Looker by creating modeled queries, defining measures and dimensions, modularizing LookML with extends, and refining logic using functions and operators. You’ll filter Explores, merge results, and sort insights to uncover what truly matters. You’ll also enhance performance with caching and explore distributed processing with Dataproc. These are the same capabilities that Zoomcar used on Google Cloud to modernize its data stack — and now, you get to build them too!
