Overview

A common scenario is where a Google Cloud Data Sharing Partner has proprietary datasets that customers can use for their analytics use cases. Customers need to subscribe to this data, query it within their own platform, then augment it with their own datasets and use their visualization tools for their customer facing dashboards. This enables Data Sharing Partners to simplify and accelerate how they build and deliver value from data-driven solutions.

Through integration with Google Cloud IAM, you can set permissions on BigQuery objects to enable access by users inside or outside of organizations. In this lab, you will learn how Data Sharing Partners create Data Twins for customers either on Google Cloud or a different cloud service provider. For the purposes of this lab, the customer is on Google Cloud in a different project.

In this lab, you will wear two hats and be provided with three Google Cloud projects. In the first project, you are taking on the role of a Data Sharing Partner sharing a dataset generated by the partner's hosted solution using a Data Publishing project. In the second project, you will assume the role of a Data Sharing Partner who will share the source dataset in partner project as an authorized view in the Data Publishing project. In the third project, you will assume the role of a customer who will access the authorized view into their project as a Data Twin and join the data with their solution dataset to create enriched datasets.

Objectives

In this lab, you will:

  • Create an authorized view for a Data Sharing Partner Dataset in different projects
  • Secure access to the authorized view for a specific customer
  • Use a customer generated dataset to join with the Data Sharing Partner dataset to create new insights

Setup and Requirements

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).
Note: Use an Incognito or private browser window to run this lab. This prevents any conflicts between your personal account and the Student account, which may cause extra charges incurred to your personal account.
  • Time to complete the lab---remember, once you start, you cannot pause a lab.
Note: If you already have your own personal Google Cloud account or project, do not use it for this lab to avoid extra charges to your account.

How to start your lab and sign in to the Google Cloud console

  1. Click the Start Lab button. If you need to pay for the lab, a pop-up opens for you to select your payment method. On the left is the Lab Details panel with the following:

    • The Open Google Cloud console button
