What are all of the BigQuery operations that Google charges for?
You are designing the architecture to process your data from Cloud Storage to BigQuery by using Dataflow. The network team provided you with the Shared VPC network and subnetwork to be used by your pipelines. You need to enable the deployment of the pipeline on the Shared VPC network. What should you do?
You are designing a data mesh on Google Cloud by using Dataplex to manage data in BigQuery and Cloud Storage. You want to simplify data asset permissions. You are creating a customer virtual lake with two user groups: * Data engineers, which require lull data lake access * Analytic users, which require access to curated data You need to assign access rights to these two groups. What should you do?
You need to connect multiple applications with dynamic public IP addresses to a Cloud SQL instance. You configured users with strong passwords and enforced the SSL connection to your Cloud SOL instance. You want to use Cloud SQL public IP and ensure that you have secured connections. What should you do?
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?
Your infrastructure team has set up an interconnect link between Google Cloud and the on-premises network. You are designing a high-throughput streaming pipeline to ingest data in streaming from an Apache Kafka cluster hosted on-premises. You want to store the data in BigQuery, with as minima! latency as possible. 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 have a BigQuery table that ingests data directly from a Pub/Sub subscription. The ingested data is encrypted with a Google-managed encryption key. You need to meet a new organization policy that requires you to use keys from a centralized Cloud Key Management Service (Cloud KMS) project to encrypt data at rest. What should you do?
Your weather app queries a database every 15 minutes to get the current temperature. The frontend is powered by Google App Engine and server millions of users. How should you design the frontend to respond to a database failure?
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?

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?

A.
Add capacity (memory and disk space) to the database server by the order of 200.

C.
Normalize the master patient-record table into the patient table and the visits table, and create other necessary tables to avoid self-join.
Answers
C.
Normalize the master patient-record table into the patient table and the visits table, and create other necessary tables to avoid self-join.
