You are running your BigQuery project in the on-demand billing model and are executing a change data capture (CDC) process that ingests data. The CDC process loads 1 GB of data every 10 minutes into a temporary table, and then performs a merge into a 10 TB target table. This process is very scan intensive and you want to explore options to enable a predictable cost model. You need to create a BigQuery reservation based on utilization information gathered from BigQuery Monitoring and apply the reservation to the CDC process. What should you do?

You are using BigQuery with a regional dataset that includes a table with the daily sales volumes. This table is updated multiple times per day. You need to protect your sales table in case of regional failures with a recovery point objective (RPO) of less than 24 hours, while keeping costs to a minimum. What should you do?

You designed a database for patient records as a pilot project to cover a few hundred patients in three clinics. Your design used a single database table to represent all patients and their visits, and you used self-joins to generate reports. The server resource utilization was at 50%. Since then, the scope of the project has expanded. The database must now store 100 times more patient records. You can no longer run the reports, because they either take too long or they encounter errors with insufficient compute resources. How should you adjust the database design?

Your company built a TensorFlow neural-network model with a large number of neurons and layers. The model fits well for the training dat a. However, when tested against new data, it performs poorly. What method can you employ to address this?

Question 11

You are designing a basket abandonment system for an ecommerce company. The system will send a message to a user based on these rules:

No interaction by the user on the site for 1 hour

Has added more than $30 worth of products to the basket

Has not completed a transaction

You use Google Cloud Dataflow to process the data and decide if a message should be sent. How should you design the pipeline?

Use a fixed-time window with a duration of 60 minutes.

Use a sliding time window with a duration of 60 minutes.

Use a session window with a gap time duration of 60 minutes.

Use a global window with a time based trigger with a delay of 60 minutes.

Your company handles data processing for a number of different clients. Each client prefers to use their own suite of analytics tools, with some allowing direct query access via Google BigQuery. You need to secure the data so that clients cannot see each other's dat a. You want to ensure appropriate access to the data. Which three steps should you take? (Choose three.)

Load data into different partitions.

Load data into a different dataset for each client.

Put each client's BigQuery dataset into a different table.

Restrict a client's dataset to approved users.

Only allow a service account to access the datasets.

Use the appropriate identity and access management (IAM) roles for each client's users.

Question 14

You want to use a database of information about tissue samples to classify future tissue samples as either normal or mutated. You are evaluating an unsupervised anomaly detection method for classifying the tissue samples. Which two characteristic support this method? (Choose two.)

There are very few occurrences of mutations relative to normal samples.

There are roughly equal occurrences of both normal and mutated samples in the database.

You expect future mutations to have different features from the mutated samples in the database.

You expect future mutations to have similar features to the mutated samples in the database.

You already have labels for which samples are mutated and which are normal in the database.

Question 15

You need to store and analyze social media postings in Google BigQuery at a rate of 10,000 messages per minute in near real-time. Initially, design the application to use streaming inserts for individual postings. Your application also performs data aggregations right after the streaming inserts. You discover that the queries after streaming inserts do not exhibit strong consistency, and reports from the queries might miss in-flight dat a. How can you adjust your application design?

Re-write the application to load accumulated data every 2 minutes.

Convert the streaming insert code to batch load for individual messages.

Load the original message to Google Cloud SQL, and export the table every hour to BigQuery via streaming inserts.

Estimate the average latency for data availability after streaming inserts, and always run queries after waiting twice as long.
