What are all of the BigQuery operations that Google charges for?
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 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 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?
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 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 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?
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 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 work for a large real estate firm and are preparing 6 TB of home sales data lo be used for machine learning You will use SOL to transform the data and use BigQuery ML lo create a machine learning model. You plan to use the model for predictions against a raw dataset that has not been transformed. How should you set up your workflow in order to prevent skew at prediction time?

Question 316 - Professional Data Engineer discussion

You are running a streaming pipeline with Dataflow and are using hopping windows to group the data as the data arrives. You noticed that some data is arriving late but is not being marked as late data, which is resulting in inaccurate aggregations downstream. You need to find a solution that allows you to capture the late data in the appropriate window. What should you do?

A.
Change your windowing function to session windows to define your windows based on certain activity.
Answers
A.
Change your windowing function to session windows to define your windows based on certain activity.
B.
Change your windowing function to tumbling windows to avoid overlapping window periods.
Answers
B.
Change your windowing function to tumbling windows to avoid overlapping window periods.
C.
Expand your hopping window so that the late data has more time to arrive within the grouping.
Answers
C.
Expand your hopping window so that the late data has more time to arrive within the grouping.
D.
Use watermarks to define the expected data arrival window Allow late data as it arrives.
Answers
D.
Use watermarks to define the expected data arrival window Allow late data as it arrives.
Suggested answer: D

Explanation:

Watermarks are a way of tracking the progress of time in a streaming pipeline. They are used to determine when a window can be closed and the results emitted. Watermarks can be either event-time based or processing-time based. Event-time watermarks track the progress of time based on the timestamps of the data elements, while processing-time watermarks track the progress of time based on the system clock. Event-time watermarks are more accurate, but they require the data source to provide reliable timestamps. Processing-time watermarks are simpler, but they can be affected by system delays or backlogs.

By using watermarks, you can define the expected data arrival window for each windowing function. You can also specify how to handle late data, which is data that arrives after the watermark has passed. You can either discard late data, or allow late data and update the results as new data arrives. Allowing late data requires you to use triggers to control when the results are emitted.

In this case, using watermarks and allowing late data is the best solution to capture the late data in the appropriate window. Changing the windowing function to session windows or tumbling windows will not solve the problem of late data, as they still rely on watermarks to determine when to close the windows. Expanding the hopping window might reduce the amount of late data, but it will also change the semantics of the windowing function and the results.
