Google Cloud Digital Leader — Question 185

An organization is hosting an application in Europe, and customers in Asia are reporting slow response times despite their fast internet connection.

What is the problem?

Answer options

• A. Not enough application servers
• B. Network bandwidth
• C. Network latency
• D. Misconfigured application servers

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C, Network latency, because the physical distance between Europe and Asia can introduce delays in data transmission. The other options, such as insufficient servers or bandwidth, are not the primary issue here since users have a fast connection; the main factor affecting response time is the latency due to geographical separation.
