Question 24

Given the record streams MJTelco is interested in ingesting per day, they are concerned about the cost of Google BigQuery increasing. MJTelco asks you to provide a design solution. They require a single large data table called tracking_table. Additionally, they want to minimize the cost of daily queries while performing fine-grained analysis of each day’s events. They also want to use streaming ingestion. What should you do?

Options:

Create a table called tracking_table and include a DATE column.

Create a partitioned table called tracking_table and include a TIMESTAMP column.

Create sharded tables for each day following the pattern tracking_table_YYYYMMDD.

Create a table called tracking_table with a TIMESTAMP column to represent the day.

Question 25

You need to compose visualizations for operations teams with the following requirements:

Which approach meets the requirements?

Options:

Load the data into Google Sheets, use formulas to calculate a metric, and use filters/sorting to show only suboptimal links in a table.

Load the data into Google BigQuery tables, write Google Apps Script that queries the data, calculates the metric, and shows only suboptimal rows in a table in Google Sheets.

Load the data into Google Cloud Datastore tables, write a Google App Engine Application that queries all rows, applies a function to derive the metric, and then renders results in a table using the Google charts and visualization API.

Load the data into Google BigQuery tables, write a Google Data Studio 360 report that connects to your data, calculates a metric, and then uses a filter expression to show only suboptimal rows in a table.

Question 26

MJTelco needs you to create a schema in Google Bigtable that will allow for the historical analysis of the last 2 years of records. Each record that comes in is sent every 15 minutes, and contains a unique identifier of the device and a data record. The most common query is for all the data for a given device for a given day. Which schema should you use?

Options:

Rowkey: date#device_idColumn data: data_point

Rowkey: dateColumn data: device_id, data_point

Rowkey: device_idColumn data: date, data_point

Rowkey: data_pointColumn data: device_id, date

Rowkey: date#data_pointColumn data: device_id

Question 27

You have a data pipeline with a Cloud Dataflow job that aggregates and writes time series metrics to Cloud Bigtable. This data feeds a dashboard used by thousands of users across the organization. You need to support additional concurrent users and reduce the amount of time required to write the data. Which two actions should you take? (Choose two.)
