Exam Professional Cloud Architect topic 11 question 8 discussion

I think it's A, because in the question says "The customer has exclusive control over who may view these images" And I think it is easier to develop this feature having in cloud datastore a NOSQL database where you can manage the control of file's viewer

A - using gsutil for this purpose makes querries on such metadata painful for application logic.

This approach leverages Google Cloud Storage for storing the image files, which provides scalability, durability, and low-latency access. By adding custom metadata containing the customer's unique ID to the uploaded images, Dress4Win can maintain control over access to the images while enabling efficient retrieval based on customer identity. This configuration aligns well with the requirement for minimal latency and quick access to images while ensuring customer privacy and security.

vote A

A is correct. The whole idea is simply build and maintain an external metadata service using NoSQL database to associate the GS object key with its metadata, in order to facilitate object findings based on attributes you pre defined in metatdata This AWS blog provides a solution in the context of AWS S3, but the idea behind is applicable to Google Storage as well https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/big-data/building-and-maintaining-an-amazon-s3-metadata-index-without-servers/

B) is not correct because we cannot search on bucket using metada (maybe in the future ...). So for now we have to get all files from the bucket and fiter on metadata ( very bad performance). The answer is A).

A. Store image files in a Google Cloud Storage bucket. Use Google Cloud Datastore to maintain metadata that maps each customer's ID and their image files.

Answer is A

Answer is A

Between A & B. A will take quickest time. A is the answer.

A is the man

The customer has exclusive control over who can view their image. Is this possible by option B, by merely adding metadata on the object. I don't think so. A is better suited.

A is correct

I will go with A, Store the images in GCS is cost-optimized way of storing images/ objects. DataStore is best option to store user profiles, which gives control to user.

A is correct

I agree with A
