Question 32

You are building an application that allows users to customize their website and mobile experiences. The application will capture user information and preferences. User profiles have a dynamic schema, and users can add or delete information from their profile. You need to ensure that user changes automatically trigger updates to your downstream BigQuery data warehouse. What should you do?

Store your data in Bigtable, and use the user identifier as the key. Use one column family to store user profile data, and use another column family to store user preferences.

Use Cloud SQL, and create different tables for user profile data and user preferences from your recommendations model. Use SQL to join the user profile data and preferences

Use Firestore in Native mode, and store user profile data as a document. Update the user profile with preferences specific to that user and use the user identifier to query.

Use Firestore in Datastore mode, and store user profile data as a document. Update the user profile with preferences specific to that user and use the user identifier to query.

Question 33

Your application uses Cloud SQL for MySQL. Your users run reports on data that relies on near-real time; however, the additional analytics caused excessive load on the primary database. You created a read replica for the analytics workloads, but now your users are complaining about the lag in data changes and that their reports are still slow. You need to improve the report performance and shorten the lag in data replication without making changes to the current reports. Which two approaches should you implement? (Choose two.)

Create secondary indexes on the replica.

Create additional read replicas, and partition your analytics users to use different read replicas.

Disable replication on the read replica, and set the flag for parallel replication on the read replica. Re-enable replication and optimize performance by setting flags on the primary instance.

Disable replication on the primary instance, and set the flag for parallel replication on the primary instance. Re-enable replication and optimize performance by setting flags on the read replica.

Move your analytics workloads to BigQuery, and set up a streaming pipeline to move data and update BigQuery.

Question 34

You are evaluating Cloud SQL for PostgreSQL as a possible destination for your on-premises PostgreSQL instances. Geography is becoming increasingly relevant to customer privacy worldwide. Your solution must support data residency requirements and include a strategy to:

configure where data is stored

control where the encryption keys are stored

govern the access to data

What should you do?

Replicate Cloud SQL databases across different zones.

Create a Cloud SQL for PostgreSQL instance on Google Cloud for the data that does not need to adhere to data residency requirements. Keep the data that must adhere to data residency requirements on-premises. Make application changes to support both databases.

Allow application access to data only if the users are in the same region as the Google Cloud region for the Cloud SQL for PostgreSQL database.

Use features like customer-managed encryption keys (CMEK), VPC Service Controls, and Identity and Access Management (IAM) policies.

Question 35

Your customer is running a MySQL database on-premises with read replicas. The nightly incremental backups are expensive and add maintenance overhead. You want to follow Google-recommended practices to migrate the database to Google Cloud, and you need to ensure minimal downtime. What should you do?

Create a Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE) cluster, install MySQL on the cluster, and then import the dump file.

Use the mysqldump utility to take a backup of the existing on-premises database, and then import it into Cloud SQL.

Create a Compute Engine VM, install MySQL on the VM, and then import the dump file.

Create an external replica, and use Cloud SQL to synchronize the data to the replica.

Question 36

You need to migrate a 1 TB PostgreSQL database from a Compute Engine VM to Cloud SQL for PostgreSQL. You want to ensure that there is minimal downtime during the migration. What should you do?

Export the data from the existing database, and load the data into a new Cloud SQL database.

Use Migrate for Compute Engine to complete the migration.

Use Datastream to complete the migration.

Use Database Migration Service to complete the migration.

Question 37

You have a large Cloud SQL for PostgreSQL instance. The database instance is not mission-critical, and you want to minimize operational costs. What should you do to lower the cost of backups in this environment?

Set the automated backups to occur every other day to lower the frequency of backups.

Change the storage tier of the automated backups from solid-state drive (SSD) to hard disk drive (HDD).

Select a different region to store your backups.

Reduce the number of automated backups that are retained to two (2).

Question 38

You are the primary DBA of a Cloud SQL for PostgreSQL database that supports 6 enterprise applications in production. You used Cloud SQL Insights to identify inefficient queries and now need to identify the application that is originating the inefficient queries. You want to follow Google-recommended practices. What should you do?

Shut down and restart each application.

Write a utility to scan database query logs.

Write a utility to scan application logs.

Use query tags to add application-centric database monitoring.
