We're holding casual study sessions on Cloud Hero Labs, to prepare for Cloud Next Extended!

Cloud Next is Google's annual cloud computing event, and this year will be 9 weeks long, with webinars and labs released weekly.

Cloud Hero labs are guided exercises on Qwiklabs where you get hands-on experience with cloud services. 

The theme this week is Cloud Infrastructure. The full list of available labs are:

CLOUD ENGINEERING

• Cloud IAM: Qwik Start
• Introduction to SQL for BigQuery and Cloud SQL
• Multiple VPC Networks
• Cloud Monitoring: Qwik Start
• Deployment Manager - Full Production
• Managing Deployments Using Kubernetes Engine
• Set up and Configure a Cloud Environment in Google Cloud: Challenge Lab

CLOUD ARCHITECTURE

• Orchestrating the Cloud with Kubernetes
• Continuous Delivery Pipelines with Spinnaker and Kubernetes Engine
• Site Reliability Troubleshooting with Cloud Monitoring APM
• Deploy and Manage Cloud Environments with Google Cloud: Challenge Lab

The labs in bold will be focused on during the session, but you are welcome to do any of the others.

The aim of the casual study sessions is so that interested people can go through labs together. We will give a short introduction to the highlighted labs, then people will go through their desired labs at their own pace. If you bump into questions, just ask in the chat. We are here to learn together!

Fully completing labs will give you badges and skill badges that you can show off on LinkedIn!
