Google Cloud Professional Data Engineer PDE — Topic 1 Question 269

Question

Your organization's data assets are stored in BigQuery, Pub/Sub, and a PostgreSQL instance running on Compute Engine. Because there are multiple domains and diverse teams using the data, teams in your organization are unable to discover existing data assets. You need to design a solution to improve data discoverability while keeping development and configuration efforts to a minimum. What should you do?

Accepted Answer

Correct answer: B. The correct answer is B. Option B: Use Data Catalog to automatically catalog BigQuery datasets and Pub/Sub topics. Use Data Catalog APIs to manually catalog PostgreSQL tables. BigQuery is a serverless, petabyte-scale data warehouse for fast SQL analytics with no infrastructure to manage. Pub/Sub is a serverless, global messaging service that decouples services and ingests high-volume event streams. Data Catalog provides metadata management and discovery across data assets.
