Your customer is moving an existing corporate application to Google Cloud Platform from an on-premises data center. The business owners require minimal user disruption. There are strict security team requirements for storing passwords. What authentication strategy should they use?
Correct Answer: C
Explanation/Reference: Explanation: Provision users to Google's directory The global Directory is available to both Cloud Platform and G Suite resources and can be provisioned by a number of means. Provisioned users can take advantage of rich authentication features including single sign-on (SSO), OAuth, and two-factor verification. You can provision users automatically using one of the following tools and services: Google Cloud Directory Sync (GCDS) Google Admin SDK A third-party connector GCDS is a connector that can provision users and groups on your behalf for both Cloud Platform and G Suite. Using GCDS, you can automate the addition, modification, and deletion of users, groups, and non- employee contacts. You can synchronize the data from your LDAP directory server to your Cloud Platform domain by using LDAP queries. This synchronization is one-way: the data in your LDAP directory server is never modified.

Question 102
Your company wants to start using Google Cloud resources but wants to retain their on-premises Active Directory domain controller for identity management. What should you do?
Correct Answer: A
Question 103
For this question, refer to the EHR Healthcare case study. In the past, configuration errors put public IP addresses on backend servers that should not have been accessible from the Internet. You need to ensure that no one can put external IP addresses on backend Compute Engine instances and that external IP addresses can only be configured on frontend Compute Engine instances. What should you do?
Operational parameters such as oil pressure are adjustable on each of TerramEarth's vehicles to increase their efficiency, depending on their environmental conditions. Your primary goal is to increase the operating efficiency of all 20 million cellular and unconnected vehicles in the field. How can you accomplish this goal?
Correct Answer: D
Explanation/Reference: https://cloud.google.com/customers/ocado/ TerramEarth, B Testlet 1 Company Overview TerramEarth manufactures heavy equipment for the mining and agricultural industries. About 80% of their business is from mining and 20% from agriculture. They currently have over 500 dealers and service centers in 100 countries. Their mission is to build products that make their customers more productive. Solution Concept There are 20 million TerramEarth vehicles in operation that collect 120 fields of data per second. Data is stored locally on the vehicle and can be accessed for analysis when a vehicle is serviced. The data is downloaded via a maintenance port. This same port can be used to adjust operational parameters, allowing the vehicles to be upgraded in the field with new computing modules. Approximately 200,000 vehicles are connected to a cellular network, allowing TerramEarth to collect data directly. At a rate of 120 fields of data per second, with 22 hours of operation per day, TerramEarth collects a total of about 9 TB/day from these connected vehicles. Existing Technical Environment TerramEarth's existing architecture is composed of Linux and Windows-based systems that reside in a single U.S, west coast based data center. These systems gzip CSV files from the field and upload via FTP, and place the data in their data warehouse. Because this process takes time, aggregated reports are based on data that is 3 weeks old. With this data, TerramEarth has been able to preemptively stock replacement parts and reduce unplanned downtime of their vehicles by 60%. However, because the data is stale, some customers are without their vehicles for up to 4 weeks while they wait for replacement parts. Business Requirements * Decrease unplanned vehicle downtime to less than 1 week * Support the dealer network with more data on how their customers use their equipment to better position new products and services * Have the ability to partner with different companies - especially with seed and fertilizer suppliers in the fast- growing agricultural business - to create compelling joint offerings for their customers Technical Requirements * Expand beyond a single datacenter to decrease latency to the American Midwest and east coast * Create a backup strategy * Increase security of data transfer from equipment to the datacenter * Improve data in the data warehouse * Use customer and equipment data to anticipate customer needs Application 1: Data ingest A custom Python application reads uploaded datafiles from a single server, writes to the data warehouse. Compute: * Windows Server 2008 R2 - 16 CPUs - 128 GB of RAM - 10 TB local HDD storage Application 2: Reporting An off the shelf application that business analysts use to run a daily report to see what equipment needs repair. Only 2 analysts of a team of 10 (5 west coast, 5 east coast) can connect to the reporting application at a time. Compute: * Off the shelf application. License tied to number of physical CPUs - Windows Server 2008 R2 - 16 CPUs - 32 GB of RAM - 500 GB HDD Data warehouse: * A single PostgreSQL server - RedHat Linux - 64 CPUs - 128 GB of RAM - 4x 6TB HDD in RAID 0 Executive Statement Our competitive advantage has always been in our manufacturing process, with our ability to build better vehicles for lower cost than our competitors. However, new products with different approaches are constantly being developed, and I'm concerned that we lack the skills to undergo the next wave of transformations in our industry. My goals are to build our skills while addressing immediate market needs through incremental innovations.
Question 105
For this question, refer to the EHR Healthcare case study. You are responsible for ensuring that EHR's use of Google Cloud will pass an upcoming privacy compliance audit. What should you do? (Choose two.)
