Actual exam question for Google's Associate-Data-Practitioner exam
Question #: 57
Topic #: 2
You have an existing weekly Storage Transfer Service transfer job from Amazon S3 to a Nearline Cloud Storage bucket in Google Cloud. Each week, the job moves a large number of relatively small files. As the number of files to be transferred each week has grown over time, you are at risk of no longer completing the transfer in the allocated time frame. You need to decrease the total transfer time by replacing the process.
Your solution should minimize costs where possible. What should you do?

Suggested Answer: B Vote an answer

Comprehensive and Detailed in Depth Explanation:
Why B is correct:Creating parallel transfer jobs by using include and exclude prefixes allows you to split the data into smaller chunks and transfer them in parallel.
This can significantly increase throughput and reduce the overall transfer time.
Why other options are incorrect:A: Changing the storage class to Standard will not improve transfer speed.
C: Dataflow is a complex solution for a simple file transfer task.
D: Agent-based transfer is suitable for large files or network limitations, but not for a large number of small files.
