Coming Soon to the Community: The Architecture Framework 

We're thrilled to share that later this month in December, we'll launch a new space in the Community dedicated to the best practices and recommendations outlined in the Google Cloud Architecture Framework.

This new space is for architects, developers, administrators, and other cloud practitioners who are looking for a structured approach to designing and operating a cloud deployment model that is secure, efficient, resilient, high-performing, and cost-effective - all while meeting unique business requirements.

Here, you'll have access to a series of articles with questions and recommendations based on the Architecture Framework to help you quickly find practical guidance and address specific challenges related to your cloud architecture.

Stay tuned. We look forward to seeing you there!

Help Make the Community Great: Accepting a Solution

ws-accepting-solution-roundup-image.pngIf you're a frequent guest or an active participant of the Google Cloud Community, you're probably already aware of Accepted Solutions. Maybe you've even had the chance to provide a solution for someone else and earned a badge on your profile.

But for those who may not be as familiar, we wanted to provide a bit more context into what Accepted Solutions are, why they're valuable, and how to accept a solution in one simple step. We also share how to find only those posts with an Accepted Solution (for those looking for answers) and how to find posts without a solution yet (for those looking to share their knowledge and provide an answer).

Learn more in the blog. And who knows? maybe you can make your way up the Top Solutions Author Leaderboard!
