Welcome to Base Camp, where you’ll develop key Google Cloud skills (available in Spanish and Portuguese too!) and earn an exclusive credential that will open doors to the cloud for you. No prior experience is required!
Earn the advanced skill badge by completing the Use Machine Learning APIs on Google Cloud course, where you learn the basic features for the following machine learning and AI technologies: Cloud Vision API, Cloud Translation API, and Cloud Natural Language API.
Earn a skill badge by completing the Set Up a Google Cloud Network skill badge course, where you will learn how to perform basic networking tasks on Google Cloud Platform - create a custom network, add subnets firewall rules, then create VMs and test the latency when they communicate with each other.
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.
Earn a skill badge by completing the Develop your Google Cloud Network skill badge course, where you learn multiple ways to deploy and monitor applications including how to: explore IAM roles and add/remove project access, create VPC networks, deploy and monitor Compute Engine VMs, write SQL queries, deploy and monitor VMs in Compute Engine, and deploy applications using Kubernetes with multiple deployment approaches.
Complete the intermediate Deploy Kubernetes Applications on Google Cloud skill badge course to demonstrate skills in the following: Configuring and building Docker container images.Creating and managing Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE) clusters.Utilizing kubectl for efficient cluster management.Deploying Kubernetes applications with robust continuous delivery (CD) practices.
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.
