Monitor and Manage Google Cloud Resources: Challenge Lab
ARC101
Overview
In a challenge lab you’re given a scenario and a set of tasks. Instead of following step-by-step instructions, you will use the skills learned from the labs in the course to figure out how to complete the tasks on your own! An automated scoring system (shown on this page) will provide feedback on whether you have completed your tasks correctly.
When you take a challenge lab, you will not be taught new Google Cloud concepts. You are expected to extend your learned skills, like changing default values and reading and researching error messages to fix your own mistakes.
To score 100% you must successfully complete all tasks within the time period!
Setup
Before you click the Start Lab button
Read these instructions. Labs are timed and you cannot pause them. The timer, which starts when you click Start Lab, shows how long Google Cloud resources will be made available to you.
This hands-on lab lets you do the lab activities yourself in a real cloud environment, not in a simulation or demo environment. It does so by giving you new, temporary credentials that you use to sign in and access Google Cloud for the duration of the lab.
To complete this lab, you need:
- Access to a standard internet browser (Chrome browser recommended).
- Time to complete the lab---remember, once you start, you cannot pause a lab.
Challenge scenario
You are just starting your junior cloud engineer role. So far you have been helping teams create and manage Google Cloud resources.
You are expected to have the skills and knowledge for these tasks.
Your challenge
You are asked to help a newly formed development team with some of their initial work on a new project around storing and organizing travel photographs, called Travel. You have been asked to assist the Travel team with initial configuration for their application development environment.
You need to:
- Create a Cloud Storage bucket and share with a second user.
- Create a Pub/Sub topic for the Cloud Function to send messages.
- Create a Cloud Function that executes every time a new object is created in the Cloud Storage bucket.
- Create an alerting policy to send a notification email about the number of active Cloud Function instances.
Some standards you should follow:
- Create all resources in the
region unless otherwise directed. - Use the project VPCs.
- Naming is normally team-resource, e.g. an instance could be named kraken-webserver1
- Allocate cost effective resource sizes. Projects are monitored and excessive resource use will result in the containing project's termination (and possibly yours), so beware. This is the guidance the monitoring team is willing to share; unless directed, use f1-micro for small Linux VMs and e2-medium for Windows or other applications such as Kubernetes nodes.
Each task is described in detail below, good luck!
Task 1. Create a bucket
-
Create a bucket named
for the storage of the photographs. -
Grant Storage Object Viewer to
on the project containing this new bucket.
Click Check my progress to verify the objective.
Task 2. Create a Pub/Sub topic
- Create a Pub/Sub topic called
for the Cloud Function to send messages.
Click Check my progress to verify the objective.
Task 3. Create the thumbnail Cloud Function
-
Create a Cloud Function called
that executes every time an object is created in the bucket you created in task 1. -
Make sure you set the Entry point (Function to execute) to
thumbnail
and Trigger toCloud Storage
. -
In line 15 of
index.js
replace the text REPLACE_WITH_YOUR_TOPIC ID with theyou created in task 2.
index.js:
package.json:
https://storage.googleapis.com/cloud-training/arc101/travel.jpg
; download the image to your machine and then upload that file to your bucket. You will see a thumbnail image appear shortly afterwards (use REFRESH in the bucket details).
Click Check my progress to verify the objective.
Task 4. Create an alerting policy
-
Create an alerting policy named
Active Cloud Function Instances
that notifies your personal email account when the number of active Cloud Function instances is greater than zero (0
). -
For the metric, be sure to select Cloud Function > Function > Active Instances.
Click Check my progress to verify the objective.
Congratulations!
