Your customer is moving an existing corporate application to Google Cloud Platform from an on-premises data center. The business owners require minimal user disruption. There are strict security team requirements for storing passwords. What authentication strategy should they use? A. Use G Suite Password Sync to replicate passwords into Google B. Federate authentication via SAML 2.0 to the existing Identity Provider C. Provision users in Google using the Google Cloud Directory Sync tool D. Ask users to set their Google password to match their corporate password

B Understanding single sign-on By using Google Cloud Directory Sync, you've already automated the creation and maintenance of users and tied their lifecycle to the users in Active Directory. Although Google Cloud Directory Sync provisions user account details, it doesn't synchronize passwords. Whenever a user needs to authenticate in Google Cloud, the authentication must be delegated back to Active Directory, which is done by using AD FS and the Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML) protocol. This setup ensures that only Active Directory has access to user credentials and is enforcing any existing policies or multi-factor authentication (MFA) mechanisms. Moreover, it establishes a single sign-on experience between your on-premises environment and Google.

The portal meets a99,99% availability SLA under these conditions. However next quarter, your company will be making the portal available to all users, including unauthenticated users. You need to develop a resiliency testing strategy to ensure the system maintains the SLA once they introduce additional user load. What should you do? A. Capture existing users input, and replay captured user load until autoscale is triggered on all layers. At the same time, terminate all resources in one of the zones B. Create synthetic random user input, replay synthetic load until autoscale logic is triggered on at least one layer, and introduce ג€chaosג€ to the system by terminating random resources on both zones C. Expose the new system to a larger group of users, and increase group size each day until autoscale logic is triggered on all layers. At the same time, terminate random resources on both zones D. Capture existing users input, and replay captured user load until resource utilization crosses 80%. Also, derive estimated number of users based on existing user's usage of the app, and deploy enough resources to handle 200% of expected load
