This quest of "Challenge Labs" gives the student preparing for the Google Cloud Certified Professional Cloud Architect certification hands-on practice with common business/technology solutions using Google Cloud architectures. Challenge Labs do not provide the "cookbook" steps, but require solutions to be built with minimal guidance, across many Google Cloud technologies. All labs have activity tracking, and in order to earn this badge you must score 100% in each lab. This quest is not easy and will put your Google Cloud technology skills to the test! Be aware that while practice with these labs will increase your knowledge and abilities, additional study, experience, and background in cloud architecture is recommended to prepare for this certification. Complete this quest to receive an exclusive Google Cloud digital badge.
