For this question, refer to the Mountkirk Games case study. Mountkirk Games wants to design their solution for the future in order to take advantage of cloud and technology improvements as they become available. Which two steps should they take? (Choose two.)

A.

Store as much analytics and game activity data as financially feasible today so it can be used to train machine learning models to predict user behavior in the future.

B.

Begin packaging their game backend artifacts in container images and running them on Kubernetes Engine to improve the availability to scale up or down based on game activity.

C.

Set up a CI/CD pipeline using Jenkins and Spinnaker to automate canary deployments and improve development velocity.

D.

Adopt a schema versioning tool to reduce downtime when adding new game features that require storing additional player data in the database.

E.

Implement a weekly rolling maintenance process for the Linux virtual machines so they can apply critical kernel patches and package updates and reduce the risk of 0-day vulnerabilities.

For this question, refer to the Mountkirk Games case study. Which managed storage option meets Mountkirk’s technical requirement for storing game activity in a time series database service?

A.

Cloud Bigtable

B.

Cloud Spanner

C.

BigQuery

D.

Cloud Datastore

Your development teams release new versions of games running on Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE) daily.

You want to create service level indicators (SLIs) to evaluate the quality of the new versions from the user’s

perspective. What should you do?

A.

Create CPU Utilization and Request Latency as service level indicators.

B.

Create GKE CPU Utilization and Memory Utilization as service level indicators.

C.

Create Request Latency and Error Rate as service level indicators.

D.

Create Server Uptime and Error Rate as service level indicators.

Your development team has created a mobile game app. You want to test the new mobile app on Android and

iOS devices with a variety of configurations. You need to ensure that testing is efficient and cost-effective. What

should you do?

A.

Upload your mobile app to the Firebase Test Lab, and test the mobile app on Android and iOS devices.

B.

Create Android and iOS VMs on Google Cloud, install the mobile app on the VMs, and test the mobile app.

C.

Create Android and iOS containers on Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE), install the mobile app on the

containers, and test the mobile app.

D.

Upload your mobile app with different configurations to Firebase Hosting and test each configuration.

Mountkirk Games wants you to secure the connectivity from the new gaming application platform to Google

Cloud. You want to streamline the process and follow Google-recommended practices. What should you do?

A.

Configure Workload Identity and service accounts to be used by the application platform.

B.

Use Kubernetes Secrets, which are obfuscated by default. Configure these Secrets to be used by the

application platform.

C.

Configure Kubernetes Secrets to store the secret, enable Application-Layer Secrets Encryption, and use

Cloud Key Management Service (Cloud KMS) to manage the encryption keys. Configure these Secrets to

be used by the application platform.

D.

Configure HashiCorp Vault on Compute Engine, and use customer managed encryption keys and Cloud

Key Management Service (Cloud KMS) to manage the encryption keys. Configure these Secrets to be used

by the application platform.

You are implementing Firestore for Mountkirk Games. Mountkirk Games wants to give a new game

programmatic access to a legacy game's Firestore database. Access should be as restricted as possible. What

should you do?

A.

Create a service account (SA) in the legacy game's Google Cloud project, add this SA in the new game's IAM page, and then give it the Firebase Admin role in both projects

B.

Create a service account (SA) in the legacy game's Google Cloud project, add a second SA in the new game's IAM page, and then give the Organization Admin role to both SAs

C.

Create a service account (SA) in the legacy game's Google Cloud project, give it the Firebase Admin role, and then migrate the new game to the legacy game's project.

D.

Create a service account (SA) in the lgacy game's Google Cloud project, give the SA the Organization Admin rule and then give it the Firebase Admin role in both projects

For this question, refer to the Dress4Win case study.

The Dress4Win security team has disabled external SSH access into production virtual machines (VMs) on Google Cloud Platform (GCP). The operations team needs to remotely manage the VMs, build and push Docker containers, and manage Google Cloud Storage objects. What can they do?

A.

Grant the operations engineers access to use Google Cloud Shell.

B.

Configure a VPN connection to GCP to allow SSH access to the cloud VMs.

C.

Develop a new access request process that grants temporary SSH access to cloud VMs when an operations engineer needs to perform a task.

D.

Have the development team build an API service that allows the operations team to execute specific remote procedure calls to accomplish their tasks.

For this question, refer to the Dress4Win case study.

You want to ensure Dress4Win's sales and tax records remain available for infrequent viewing by auditors for at least 10 years. Cost optimization is your top priority. Which cloud services should you choose?

Google Cloud Storage Coldline to store the data, and gsutil to access the data.

B.

Google Cloud Storage Nearline to store the data, and gsutil to access the data.

C.

Google Bigtabte with US or EU as location to store the data, and gcloud to access the data.

D.

BigQuery to store the data, and a web server cluster in a managed instance group to access the data. Google Cloud SQL mirrored across two distinct regions to store the data, and a Redis cluster in a managed instance group to access the data.

For this question, refer to the Dress4Win case study.

Dress4Win has asked you for advice on how to migrate their on-premises MySQL deployment to the cloud. They want to minimize downtime and performance impact to their on-premises solution during the migration. Which approach should you recommend?

A.

Create a dump of the on-premises MySQL master server, and then shut it down, upload it to the cloud environment, and load into a new MySQL cluster.

B.

Setup a MySQL replica server/slave in the cloud environment, and configure it for asynchronous replication from the MySQL master server on-premises until cutover.

C.

Create a new MySQL cluster in the cloud, configure applications to begin writing to both on-premises and cloud MySQL masters, and destroy the original cluster at cutover.

D.

Create a dump of the MySQL replica server into the cloud environment, load it into: Google Cloud Datastore, and configure applications to read/write to Cloud Datastore at cutover.
