Q72. Your company uses Bigtable for a user-facing application that displays a low-latency real-time dashboard. You need to recommend the optimal storage type for this read-intensive database. What should you do?

Q73. You are using Compute Engine on Google Cloud and your data center to manage a set of MySQL databases in a hybrid configuration. You need to create replicas to scale reads and to offload part of the management operation. What should you do?

Q74. You want to migrate an existing on-premises application to Google Cloud. Your application supports semi-structured data ingested from 100,000 sensors, and each sensor sends 10 readings per second from manufacturing plants. You need to make this data available for real-time monitoring and analysis. What should you do?

Q75. Your company is developing a new global transactional application that must be ACID-compliant and have 99.999% availability. You are responsible for selecting the appropriate Google Cloud database to serve as a datastore for this new application. What should you do?

Q76. Your application uses Cloud SQL for MySQL. Your users run reports on data that relies on near-real time; however, the additional analytics caused excessive load on the primary database. You created a read replica for the analytics workloads, but now your users are complaining about the lag in data changes and that their reports are still slow. You need to improve the report performance and shorten the lag in data replication without making changes to the current reports. Which two approaches should you implement? (Choose two.)

Q77. You are choosing a new database backend for an existing application. The current database is running PostgreSQL on an on-premises VM and is managed by a database administrator and operations team. The application data is relational and has light traffic. You want to minimize costs and the migration effort for this application. What should you do?

Q78. Your company is launching a new globally distributed application with strict requirements for low latency, strong consistency, zero downtime, and high availability (HA). You need to configure a scalable database solution to support anticipated rapid growth and optimal application performance. What should you do?

Q79. You want to migrate your on-premises PostgreSQL database to Compute Engine. You need to migrate this database with the minimum downtime possible. What should you do?

Q80. Your retail organization is preparing for the holiday season. Use of catalog services is increasing, and your DevOps team is supporting the Cloud SQL databases that power a microservices-based application. The DevOps team has added instrumentation through Sqlcommenter. You need to identify the root cause of why certain microservice calls are failing. What should you do?

Q81. You released a popular mobile game and are using a 50 TB Cloud Spanner instance to store game data in a PITR-enabled production environment. When you analyzed the game statistics, you realized that some players are exploiting a loophole to gather more points to get on the leaderboard. Another DBA accidentally ran an emergency bugfix script that corrupted some of the data in the production environment. You need to determine the extent of the data corruption and restore the production environment. What should you do?
(Choose two.)

Q82. Your organization is running a critical production database on a virtual machine (VM) on Compute Engine.
The VM has an ext4-formatted persistent disk for data files. Thedatabase will soon run out of storage space.
You need to implement a solution that avoids downtime. What should you do?

Q83. Your online delivery business that primarily serves retail customers uses Cloud SQL for MySQL for its inventory and scheduling application. The required recovery time objective (RTO) and recovery point objective (RPO) must be in minutes rather than hours as a part of your high availability and disaster recovery design. You need a high availability configuration that can recover without data loss during a zonal or a regional failure. What should you do?

Q84. You want to migrate an on-premises mission-critical PostgreSQL database to Cloud SQL. The database must be able to withstand a zonal failure with less than five minutes of downtime and still not lose any transactions.
You want to follow Google-recommended practices for the migration. What should you do?

Q85. Your organization stores marketing data such as customer preferences and purchase history on Bigtable. The consumers of this database are predominantly data analysts and operations users. You receive a service ticket from the database operations department citing poor database performance between 9 AM-10 AM every day. The application team has confirmed no latency from their logs. A new cohort of pilot users that is testing a dataset loaded from a third-party data provider is experiencing poor database performance. Other users are not affected. You need to troubleshoot the issue. What should you do?

Q87. You are designing a database architecture for a global application that stores information about public parks worldwide. The application uses the database for read-only purposes, and a centralized batch job updates the database nightly. You want to select an open source, SQL-compliant database. What should you do?
