◉ You are creating a custom machine learning application that
recognizes images of certain models of cars using Cloud ML Engine.
You need to gather test data and are allowing specific people to
submit their own car images for the next 24 hours. Most of your
users do not have a Google account. How should you enable your
users to submit images?
Вы создаете специальное приложение для машинного
обучения, которое распознает изображения определенных
моделеи автомобилеи с помощью Cloud ML Engine. Вам
необходимо собрать данные испытании и позволить
конкретным людям отправлять свои собственные изображения
автомобилеи в течение следующих 24 часов. У большинства
ваших пользователеи нет учетнои записи Google. Как вы
должны разрешить своим пользователям отправлять
изображения?. Answer: [ ] B
,Provide a signed URL that allows users to upload images to Cloud
Storage that expires in 24 hours.
◉ Your companya€™s test suite is a custom C++ application that
runs tests throughout each day on Linux virtual machines. The full
test suite takes several hours to complete, running on a limited
number of on-premises servers reserved for testing. Your company

amount of time it takes to fully test a change to the system, while
changing the tests as little as possible.
Which cloud infrastructure should you recommend?. Answer: B.
Google Compute Engine managed instance groups with auto-scaling
◉ A lead software engineer tells you that his new application design
uses websockets and HTTP sessions that are not distributed across
the web servers. You want to help him ensure his application will

What should you do?. Answer: C. Meet with the cloud operations
team and the engineer to discuss load balancer options
◉ Question #3
The application reliability team at your company this added a debug
feature to their backend service to send all server events to Google
Cloud Storage for eventual analysis. The event records are at least 50
KB and at most 15 MB and are expected to peak at 3,000 events per
second. You want to minimize data loss.
, Which process should you implement?. Answer: A. a€¢ Append
metadata to file body a€¢ Compress individual files a€¢ Name files
with serverName a€" Timestamp a€¢ Create a new bucket if bucket
is older than 1 hour and save individual files to the new bucket.
Otherwise, save files to existing bucket.
◉ A recent audit revealed that a new network was created in your
GCP project. In this network, a GCE instance has an SSH port open to
the world. You want to discover this networka€™s origin.
What should you do?. Answer: C. In the Logging section of the
console, specify GCE Network as the logging section. Search for the
Create Insert entry
◉ You want to make a copy of a production Linux virtual machine in
the US-Central region. You want to manage and replace the copy
easily if there are changes on the production virtual machine. You
will deploy the copy as a new instance in a different project in the
US-East region.
What steps must you take?. Answer: D. Create a snapshot of the root
disk, create an image file in Google Cloud Storage from the snapshot,
and create a new virtual machine instance in the US-East region
using the image file the root disk.
◉ Your company runs several databases on a single MySQL instance.
They need to take backups of a specific database at regular intervals.
The backup activity needs to complete as quickly as possible and
cannot be allowed to impact disk performance.
