Google Professional Cloud Network Engineer Question 129
Single answerGoogle Cloud PlatformYour company is planning to connect its on-premises data center to Google Cloud to access services like BigQuery and Cloud Storage. The data center requires high bandwidth and low latency, and your team prefers a direct connection without using a third-party provider. However, your ISP supports connecting to Google via a partner network that is already verified by Google. Which connectivity option is the most appropriate for your use case?
- A
Direct Peering
- B
Partner Interconnect using a Verified Provider
- C
Dedicated Interconnect
- D
Carrier Peering
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
Partner Interconnect using a Verified Provider is the best option for this scenario. It allows your company to leverage its ISP's partner network to create a private and secure connection to Google Cloud without the need for significant physical setup. This solution ensures that your on-premises data center can connect to Google services like BigQuery and Cloud Storage with high bandwidth and low latency, meeting your requirements.
- A. Incorrect.
Direct Peering allows you to connect directly to Google at a Google edge location, but it does not provide a private connection to your Virtual Private Cloud (VPC). This is not suitable if you need to connect on-premises resources directly to your Google VPC network.
- B. Correct.
Partner Interconnect using a Verified Provider is the most suitable choice in this scenario since your ISP supports a verified partner network, and it allows you to establish a private connection between your on-premises data center and Google Cloud.
- C. Incorrect.
Dedicated Interconnect provides a private connection directly to Google via dedicated circuits, but it requires significant physical setup and is not applicable when using an ISP that supports a verified partner network.
- D. Incorrect.
Carrier Peering allows your ISP to provide public access to Google services like YouTube or Google Workspace, but it does not provide a private connection to your Google VPC network. This is not suitable for high-bandwidth, low-latency connections required for accessing BigQuery and Cloud Storage.
