Google Professional Cloud Network Engineer Question 510
Select 3Google Cloud PlatformYour organization uses a third-party object storage provider to host static assets, such as images and videos. You want to set up Cloud CDN to cache these assets for faster delivery to end users and reduce traffic to the third-party storage. Which of the following steps are required to correctly configure this setup?
- A
Create an internet Network Endpoint Group (NEG) pointing to the third-party object storage.
- B
Enable Cloud CDN on the internet NEG created for the third-party object storage.
- C
Set up a Cloud Storage bucket to replicate the assets from the third-party object storage.
- D
Configure a Google Cloud Load Balancer to serve traffic and attach the internet NEG as its backend.
- E
Add a custom domain and SSL certificate to the third-party object storage.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answers: A, B, D
Explanation
To set up Cloud CDN with third-party object storage, you need to create an internet NEG to represent the external storage, enable Cloud CDN on the NEG, and use a Google Cloud Load Balancer to route traffic to the NEG. This setup ensures that Cloud CDN can cache content from the third-party storage and serve it efficiently to end users.
- A. Correct.
Correct: An internet NEG is required to represent external backends, such as a third-party object storage service, in Google Cloud.
- B. Correct.
Correct: Cloud CDN must be explicitly enabled on the internet NEG to cache content from the third-party backend.
- C. Incorrect.
Incorrect: While replicating assets to a Cloud Storage bucket could be an alternate approach, it is not required for integrating Cloud CDN with third-party object storage.
- D. Correct.
Correct: A Google Cloud Load Balancer is necessary to route traffic to the internet NEG and enable Cloud CDN functionality.
- E. Incorrect.
Incorrect: Adding a custom domain and SSL certificate to the third-party storage is not required for using Cloud CDN. Google Cloud handles SSL termination at the Load Balancer level.
