Google Professional Cloud Network Engineer Question 697
Select 2Google Cloud PlatformYou are designing a hybrid network for your organization, which requires secure and low-latency connectivity between your on-premises data center and Google Cloud. You have decided to use a hub-and-spoke architecture for your Google Cloud networking setup. In this architecture, some of your applications require high-bandwidth, low-latency connectivity, while others require secure but cost-effective connectivity. Which combination of hybrid spokes should you configure for the optimal design?
- A
Use Dedicated Interconnect for high-bandwidth, low-latency workloads and VPN for secure, cost-effective connectivity.
- B
Use Partner Interconnect for secure, cost-effective connectivity and Dedicated Interconnect for high-bandwidth, low-latency workloads.
- C
Use only VPN for all workloads since it provides both security and cost-effectiveness.
- D
Use only Dedicated Interconnect for all workloads since it provides high-bandwidth and low-latency connectivity.
- E
Use Partner Interconnect for all workloads as it provides a balance between cost and performance.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answers: A, B
Explanation
A hybrid networking setup in Google Cloud often requires a combination of connectivity options depending on workload requirements. Dedicated Interconnect is suitable for high-bandwidth, low-latency workloads, while VPN and Partner Interconnect are better suited for secure and cost-effective connectivity. Using a mix of these options allows for an optimized design that balances performance and cost.
- A. Correct.
Correct: Dedicated Interconnect is ideal for high-bandwidth, low-latency workloads, while VPN is cost-effective and secure for workloads that do not require high performance.
- B. Correct.
Correct: Partner Interconnect offers a cost-effective solution for secure connectivity, and Dedicated Interconnect serves high-bandwidth, low-latency needs.
- C. Incorrect.
Incorrect: While VPN provides security and cost-effectiveness, it is not suitable for high-bandwidth, low-latency connectivity needs.
- D. Incorrect.
Incorrect: Dedicated Interconnect is high-performing but not cost-effective for workloads that do not require high performance.
- E. Incorrect.
Incorrect: Partner Interconnect is a balanced option but might not meet the high-performance needs of certain workloads.
