Arcade Trail: Automation and Analytics
Earned Mar 25, 2026 EDT
Online games can get unpredictable. One update drops, a new event goes live—and suddenly, thousands of players are logging in at the same time. That’s where the backend really gets tested. Companies like Com2uS rely on cloud infrastructure to handle exactly this kind of pressure without things falling apart. Here, you’ll work through the same building blocks—setting up networks, handling secure connections, and deploying apps with Docker and Kubernetes. You’ll add authentication, keep an eye on things with logging, and move data when needed. It’s the kind of work that keeps everything running smoothly while players just focus on the game.
Great data experiences don’t happen by accident — they’re modeled, optimized, and scaled with intent. In this challenge, you’ll build a strong foundation with Looker by creating modeled queries, defining measures and dimensions, modularizing LookML with extends, and refining logic using functions and operators. You’ll filter Explores, merge results, and sort insights to uncover what truly matters. You’ll also enhance performance with caching and explore distributed processing with Dataproc. These are the same capabilities that Zoomcar used on Google Cloud to modernize its data stack — and now, you get to build them too!
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!
Modern cloud teams rely on automation and strong platform knowledge to move faster and smarter. In this trail, you’ll deploy Kubernetes Load Balancers and Cloud SQL using Terraform, strengthen observability with Cloud Logging, and customize analytics experiences in Looker using Liquid. You’ll also put your knowledge to the test through role-based Arcade Quizzes — from Data Practitioner and Database Engineer to Workspace Administrator — sharpening both your technical confidence and real-world readiness.
