About RAD Platform

RAD Platform is a hands-on Google Cloud certification training platform built by Tech Equity Cloud. RAD stands for Rapid Application Deployment — not to be confused with "Rapid Application Development" low-code tools.

Instead of slides or simulated sandboxes, RAD deploys pre-configured, industry-realistic infrastructure ("modules") into your own Google Cloud project, so every certification exam objective maps to a real, inspectable cloud resource you deployed yourself.

What the platform covers​

  • 159 module reference guides — configuration references for deploying 100+ open-source and cloud-native applications on Cloud Run and GKE Autopilot
  • 111 hands-on labs — guided deploy → verify → operate → observe → tear-down walkthroughs in your own GCP project
  • Certification lab maps and section guides for seven Google Cloud certifications: Associate Cloud Engineer (ACE), Professional Cloud Architect (PCA), Professional Cloud Developer (PCD), Professional Cloud Database Engineer (PCDE), Professional Cloud Network Engineer (PCNE), Professional Cloud DevOps Engineer (PDE), and Professional Cloud Security Engineer (PSE)
  • Design principles documenting the engineering standards behind every module

Who builds it​

Tech Equity Cloud builds and operates the RAD Console, the deployment portal behind these docs, and maintains this documentation.
