Google Cloud Professional Cloud Network Engineer — Question 60

You have a storage bucket that contains two objects. Cloud CDN is enabled on the bucket, and both objects have been successfully cached. Now you want to make sure that one of the two objects will not be cached anymore, and will always be served to the internet directly from the origin.
What should you do?

Answer options

• A. Ensure that the object you don't want to be cached anymore is not shared publicly.
• B. Create a new storage bucket, and move the object you don't want to be checked anymore inside it. Then edit the bucket setting and enable the private attribute.
• C. Add an appropriate lifecycle rule on the storage bucket containing the two objects.
• D. Add a Cache-Control entry with value private to the metadata of the object you don't want to be cached anymore. Invalidate all the previously cached copies.

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D because adding a Cache-Control entry with the value private instructs Cloud CDN to not cache the object, ensuring it is always served directly from the origin. Option A is incorrect as changing public access does not affect caching behavior. Option B suggests moving the object, which is unnecessary. Option C does not specifically address the caching requirement for this object.
