Work Meets Play: Expressive Efficiency
Earned מאי 25, 2026 EDT
Building and running applications on Google Cloud can take many forms—and this adventure brings them together. Get hands-on with App Engine, Cloud Run, Kubernetes Engine, and Compute Engine as you deploy applications, manage scaling, and explore modern architectures, including the shift from monolithic to microservices.
A season to build, experiment, and grow—one skill at a time. You’ll start with the fundamentals of networking, creating the foundation that connects everything together. From there, you’ll step into automation and application development using Cloud Scheduler, App Engine, and machine learning APIs. By the end, you’ll have a more confident, hands-on understanding of how modern applications are built, connected, and run on the cloud.
As platforms grow, maintaining speed, reliability, and seamless user experiences becomes critical. Inspired by Bobble AI and its journey to support millions of real-time interactions, this challenge explores how cloud-native systems are designed for efficiency at scale. You’ll work with Docker and Kubernetes to run and orchestrate applications, while also using IAM, Cloud Storage, and Monitoring to manage access, data, and performance. The result: a clearer view of how the right mix of containers, automation, and observability keeps modern applications fast, resilient, and efficient.
