Data Catalog is deprecated and will be discontinued on January 30, 2026. You can still complete this course if you want to. For steps to transition your Data Catalog users, workloads, and content to Dataplex Catalog, see Transition from Data Catalog to Dataplex Catalog (https://cloud.google.com/dataplex/docs/transition-to-dataplex-catalog). Data Catalog is a fully managed and scalable metadata management service that empowers organizations to quickly discover, understand, and manage all of their data. In this quest you will start small by learning how to search and tag data assets and metadata with Data Catalog. After learning how to build your own tag templates that map to BigQuery table data, you will learn how to build MySQL, PostgreSQL, and SQLServer to Data Catalog Connectors.

The Generative AI Explorer - Vertex Quest is a collection of labs on how to use Generative AI on Google Cloud. Through the labs, you will learn about how to use the models in the Vertex AI PaLM API family, including text-bison, chat-bison, and textembedding-gecko. You will also learn about prompt design, best practices, and how it can be used for ideation, text classification, text extraction, text summarization, and more. You will also learn how to tune a foundation model by training it via Vertex AI custom training and deploy it to a Vertex AI endpoint.
