Google Cloud Professional Data Engineer — Question 187
You have several different file type data sources, such as Apache Parquet and CSV. You want to store the data in Cloud Storage. You need to set up an object sink for your data that allows you to use your own encryption keys. You want to use a GUI-based solution. What should you do?
Answer options
- A. Use Storage Transfer Service to move files into Cloud Storage.
- B. Use Cloud Data Fusion to move files into Cloud Storage.
- C. Use Dataflow to move files into Cloud Storage.
- D. Use BigQuery Data Transfer Service to move files into BigQuery.
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The correct answer is B, as Cloud Data Fusion offers a GUI for integrating and moving data into Cloud Storage while enabling the use of custom encryption keys. Option A, Storage Transfer Service, is primarily for transferring existing data but does not provide the same level of customization for encryption. Option C, Dataflow, is more suited for processing data streams rather than a straightforward file transfer, and option D is irrelevant since it focuses on transferring data to BigQuery instead of Cloud Storage.
