Cloud Pub/Sub — Google Cloud Professional Cloud Architect Practice Questions
Cloud Pub/Sub is Google Cloud's fully managed, globally distributed message-queuing and event-streaming service, and it appears prominently on the Google Cloud Professional Cloud Architect exam. Architects must understand its publish-subscribe model, where publishers send messages to topics and subscribers pull or receive pushed messages from subscriptions. The exam tests knowledge of how Pub/Sub integrates with services like Dataflow, Cloud Functions, and BigQuery to build event-driven pipelines. Key design considerations include message ordering, dead-letter topics, acknowledgment deadlines, and scaling under high-throughput conditions.
