Google Cloud Digital Leader — Question 23

Your team is publishing research results and needs to make large amounts of data available to other researchers within the professional community and the public at minimum cost.
How should you host the data?

Answer options

• A. Use a Cloud Storage bucket and enable ג€Requester Pays.ג€
• B. Use a Cloud Storage bucket and provide Signed URLs for the data files.
• C. Use a Cloud Storage bucket and set up a Cloud Interconnect connection to allow access to the data.
• D. Host the data on-premises, and set up a Cloud Interconnect connection to allow access to the data.

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A because enabling 'Requester Pays' allows others to access the data while minimizing costs for the hosting team, as they only incur costs when others access the data. Options B and C would involve additional costs for signed URLs and interconnect setups, respectively. Option D is not cost-effective as it requires maintaining on-premises infrastructure.
