- Which mechanism lets a globally distributed database order transactions consistently across machines on several continents, so that externally consistent reads and writes are possible at scale?Hard
- A streaming startup receives raw camera uploads in many codecs and must produce HLS renditions at several bitrates. Volume is bursty, with long idle periods. Which option minimizes spend and operational work?Medium
- A developer wants a 2nd-generation Cloud Function to run each time an object is created or deleted in a Cloud Storage bucket. Which trigger mechanism should the function be deployed with?Medium
- A hospital must keep imaging backups for seven years for compliance. The copies are read only during rare audits, and a retrieval delay of several hours is acceptable. Which Cloud Storage class minimizes the storage cost for this data?Easy
