Your company is migrating all legacy applications to Google Cloud. All on-premises applications are using legacy Oracle 12c databases with Oracle Real Application Cluster (RAC) for high availability (HA) and Oracle Data Guard for disaster recovery. You need a solution that requires minimal code changes, provides the same high availability you have today on-premises, and supports a low latency network for migrated legacy applications. What should you do?
You have deployed a Cloud SQL for SQL Server instance. In addition, you created a cross-region read replica for disaster recovery (DR) purposes. Your company requires you to maintain and monitor a recovery point objective (RPO) of less than 5 minutes. You need to verify that your cross-region read replica meets the allowed RPO. What should you do?
You are a DBA of Cloud SQL for PostgreSQL. You want the applications to have password-less authentication for read and write access to the database. Which authentication mechanism should you use?
You want to migrate an existing on-premises application to Google Cloud. Your application supports semi-structured data ingested from 100,000 sensors, and each sensor sends 10 readings per second from manufacturing plants. You need to make this data available for real-time monitoring and analysis. What should you do?
Your DevOps team is using Terraform to deploy applications and Cloud SQL databases. After every new application change is rolled out, the environment is torn down and recreated, and the persistent database layer is lost. You need to prevent the database from being dropped. What should you do?
