Over 70% of cloud professionals say hands-on practice is the most effective way to build real-world skills. In this adventure, you’ll develop hands-on skills across data analytics, automation, security, networking, and application deployment using Google Cloud and Workspace tools. You’ll create dashboards and alerts in Looker, analyze security findings, work with AI-powered services, deploy CI/CD pipelines, and manage network access and traffic insights—strengthening your ability to design, monitor, and operate reliable, scalable cloud solutions.
Pup and Kit’s World Cup journey highlights how the right skills quietly power great experiences. As they plan, adapt, and stay in sync using data, automation, and cloud-based tools, the story nudges you to step into their shoes and build those capabilities yourself. Each lab mirrors a moment from their adventure, encouraging you to explore, experiment, and strengthen skills that help you stay prepared, move faster, and make smarter choices-whatever the situation demands.
As Pup and Kit move through the city between matches—booking plans on the fly, exploring structures built to last, and navigating busy streets—the story reflects what it takes to keep systems running smoothly behind the scenes. From securing storage and shaping networks to improving performance, reliability, and cost efficiency, these labs echo the quiet work that makes flexibility possible. Along the way, hands-on challenges and quizzes sharpen decision-making, so when it’s time for the next big play, everything is ready to perform.
Over 80% of modern applications rely on event-driven architectures or real-time messaging to stay responsive at scale. In challenge, you’ll work with Pub/Sub to build event-driven systems, deploy workloads on Google Kubernetes Engine, manage authentication and dynamic secrets with Vault, and explore language processing using Cloud APIs. You’ll also build Flutter applications and work with Cloud Spanner, gaining hands-on experience across messaging, security, data, and application development.
A new year brings a fresh opportunity to build consistency in how you learn and apply cloud skills. In this challenge, you’ll deploy applications using App Engine and Cloud Run Functions, work with Compute Engine instances, and manage data through Cloud Storage using both the console and CLI. You’ll also define fine-grained access with custom IAM roles, analyze logs, create alerts from logs-based metrics, and monitor workloads across multiple projects. Together, these labs help you begin the year by strengthening essential cloud operations skills and developing habits that support reliable, well-monitored applications.
