A+ Answer Guide!!
BigQuery correct answers - A highly scalable, and cost-effective cloud data warehouse tool
designed in making informed decisions quickly.
- Google Cloud's leading data warehouse solution
Cloud Storage correct answers - A RESTful online file storage web service for storing and
accessing data on Google Cloud Platform infrastructure
- Object storage service for structured, semi-structured and structured data.
- One of several products used in data lake solutions
Cloud SQL correct answers A fully managed relational database service for MySQL,
PostgreSQL, and SQL Server. Allows its users to take advantage of the computing power of
the Google Cloud Platform instead of setting up their own infrastructure.
GKE correct answers - An open-source container orchestration system for automating
computer application deployment, scaling, and management
- Provides a managed environment for deploying, managing, and scaling your containerized
applications using Google infrastructure.
- Consists of multiple machines (specifically, Compute Engine instances) grouped together to
form a cluster.
Cloud Debugger correct answers - A real-time application state inspection and in-production
debugging tool.
- Solves the problem of isolating issues that occur only in production.
- Lets you inspect the state of a Java or Go application at any code location without stopping
or slowing it down.
Serverless Computing correct answers - A cloud computing execution model in which the
cloud provider allocates machine resources on demand, taking care of the servers on behalf of
their customers.
- Enables you to build and deploy functions and applications using a fully managed end-to-
end serverless platform.
Containers correct answers - Provides an isolated environment to run software services and
optimize resources from one piece of hardware.
- Containers are more efficient than VMs because they do not recreate a full representation of
the hardware, but only recreate or virtualize the operating system.
looker correct answers Google Cloud business intelligence solution
Data Lake correct answers a repository designed to store, process, and secure large amounts
of structured, semistructured, and unstructured data. It can store data in its native format and
process any variety of it, ignoring size limits and serves many purposes, such as exploratory
data analysis.
Data Warehouse correct answers - The central hub for all business data, it assembles data
from multiple sources, including databases.
, - With connectors, can transform unstructured data into semi-structured data that can be used
for analysis
- rapidly analyze and report massive and multi-dimensional datasets on an ongoing basis, in
real-time.
Compute Power correct answers The speed at which a computer is able to process data
Google Compute Engine (GCE) correct answers Virtual machines running in Google's data
center
Google Cloud Datastore correct answers - A fully managed, schemaless, non-relational
datastore.
- Provides a rich set of query capabilities, supports atomic transactions, and automatically
scales up and down in response to load.
- Can scale to support an application with 1,000 users or 10 million users with no code
changes.
Google Cloud Dataproc correct answers A service for distributed data processing. It provides
management, integration, and development tools for unlocking the power of rich open source
data processing tools.
Structured data correct answers Data that (1) are typically numeric or categorical; (2) can be
organized and formatted in a way that is easy for computers to read, organize, and
understand; and (3) can be inserted into a database in a seamless fashion.
Unstructured data correct answers Data that does not exist in a fixed location and can include
text documents, PDFs, voice messages, emails
Machine Learning (ML) correct answers A subset of artificial intelligence that enables a
system to autonomously learn and improve using neural networks and deep learning, without
being explicitly programmed, by feeding it large amounts of data.
Streaming Analytics correct answers The processing and analyzing of data records
continuously rather than in batches.
Difference between BigQuery and Cloud SQL correct answers - Cloud SQL is a database
service
- BigQuery is a data warehousing service designed for large-scale data analysis - NOT a
database service
- Cloud SQL has more database security options than BigQuery
- The storage space in Cloud SQL depends on the data warehouse being used, while that of
BigQuery is equivalent to that of Google cloud storage
Hybrid Cloud correct answers Computing model where firms use both their own IT
infrastructure and also public cloud computing services.
Multicloud correct answers Usage of two or more public clouds at a time, and possibly
multiple private clouds
