Streaming high-velocity data is great, but only if your pipeline doesn't break under pressure. In this trail, you'll wire up Pub/Sub and Python Dataflow to stream live data straight into Cloud Storage, then lock the whole environment down. By encrypting keys with Cloud KMS, cataloging assets, and isolating networks with VPC Peering, you'll clear both challenge labs and prove you can build real-time data lakes that are as fast as they are secure.

Learn more

Great code shouldn't get bogged down by infrastructure headaches. In this voyage, you'll master modern deployment patterns by turning ideas into production-ready microservices. From generating dynamic files and decoupling services with Pub/Sub to deploying polyglot apps across three different languages on App Engine, you'll cover the full developer lifecycle. Complete the challenge labs and show you know how to build fast, scale effortlessly, and keep things resilient.

Learn more

Cloud architecture is a lot more fun when you actually know which levers to pull. In this adventure, you'll wire up Pub/Sub messaging, sling storage buckets from the terminal, and trigger Cloud Run functions without getting tangled in server management. Once your pipeline is moving, you'll lock the front door with IAM permissions and wire up real-time monitoring so nothing breaks while you're away. Finish both challenge labs to prove you can build fast, break nothing, and keep the whole machine running smoothly.

Learn more

Close the gap between general AI capabilities and your domain knowledge through Agent Skills. This course walks you through the full lifecycle of custom skill building, from local scaffolding and testing to enterprise scaling and sharing using Google's agent ecosystem, including Google Antigravity, ADK, and Skill Registry. Additionally, you use Google Agents CLI toolkit to attach skills to standalone 24/7 cloud agents, equipping your team with reliable, autonomous digital coworkers.

Learn more

Since last month's Arcade Trail wrapped up earlier than expected, we’re opening up this bonus game only for this month so you can grab that missed Arcade Point! You'll start on the vault side with Google Cloud Storage—managing buckets, exploring APIs, and locking down sensitive data with Bucket Lock. Then, you'll shift to event-driven vectors at the command line, triggering Cloud Run Functions and routing real-time messages through Pub/Sub. Complete with two hands-on challenge labs, this trail gets your streak back on track while building real-world storage and serverless skills.

Learn more

Welcome to this month's Arcade Simulator where you will step into the shoes of a Network Security Engineer. In this simulation, you'll first lock down access control across your infrastructure—crafting custom IAM roles, scripting permissions, and setting up Identity-Aware Proxy to secure user authentication without traditional VPNs. Then, you'll take control of hybrid enterprise topology, using Network Connectivity Center to link multi-cloud networks, VPCs, and site-to-site HA-VPNs. Complete with two realistic challenge labs, this simulation equips you to eliminate access blind spots, secure cross-cloud traffic, and build a fortress-grade network on Google Cloud.

Transforming raw spreadsheet data into structured business intelligence requires precise validation, efficient navigation, and dynamic visual reporting. This voyage path builds core analytical competencies using Google Sheets. You will begin by implementing strict data validation rules, configuring targeted search workflows, and ensuring data integrity across large datasets. You will then advance to building dynamic charts and executing complex analytical formulas to extract meaningful insights. Finalized with a comprehensive challenge lab, this voyage prepares you to build reliable, presentation-ready analytical workbooks.

Learn more

It’s all about global spans and execution plans. First, you'll get under the hood of Google Cloud Spanner to design schemas, load data at scale, and master query plan optimization. From there, you'll execute your serverless backend plan by wiring up Cloud Run Functions, Pub/Sub messaging, and API Gateway. Packed with two challenge labs, you'll leave with full control over enterprise data and event-driven APIs.

Learn more
