In this series of liveProjects, you will use Google Cloud Platform to build a data pipeline that can ingest, transform, and analyze data coming from simulated IoT devices. You’ll step into the role of a cloud engineer for a company that provides tsunami early warning detection, helping it migrate its on-prem software to the cloud. Each liveProject in this series covers a different aspect of pipeline creation, so you can pick and choose the skills that are most relevant to you.

These projects are designed for learning purposes and are not complete, production-ready applications or solutions.

here's what's included

Project 1 Real-Time Ingestion
In this liveProject, you’ll simulate data from a 4G/5G connected ocean buoy in order to prototype your cloud data pipeline. You’ll start by setting up Cloud IoT Core, then establish communication with Cloud Pub/Sub Topic for aggregation. Finally, you’ll implement a Java module that can generate your simulated data.
Project 2 Process and Enrich Data
In this liveProject, you’ll apply transformations to the raw data ingested in Cloud Pub/Sub, in order to make it easy to consume for downstream systems. You’ll need to work out the best data transformation to apply, and how to maintain performance to near-real-time levels.
Project 3 Storage Layer
In this liveProject, you’ll build an efficient cloud-based storage layer. Your pipeline requires two storage layers: long-term storage that’s suited for backup and recovery, and a hot layer that can be queried and visualized without latency. You’ll implement a Coldest-Storage layer for long-term, and then modify the Cloud BigQuery Table Schema for enriched querying and data analysis.
Project 4 Alerting and Visualization
In this liveProject, you’ll create an alert system based on predefined rules, which will be passed as an input parameter to Cloud Dataflow Pipeline. You’ll set up a triggered alert with Cloud BigQuery, and use Google Data Studio to create data visualizations and an overlay on Google Maps. You’ll set up an email notification with the SendGrid Email API that automatically triggers if a threshold value is exceeded.
