How should you provision the connectivity solution?

Your software team is developing an on-premises web application that requires direct connectivity to Compute Engine Instances in GCP using the RFC 1918 address space.

You want to choose a connectivity solution from your on-premises environment to GCP, given these specifications:

Your ISP is a Google Partner Interconnect provider.

Your on-premises VPN device’s internet uplink and downlink speeds are 10 Gbps.

A test VPN connection between your on-premises gateway and GCP is performing at a maximum speed of 500 Mbps due to packet losses.

Most of the data transfer will be from GCP to the on-premises environment.

The application can burst up to 1.5 Gbps during peak transfers over the Interconnect.

Cost and the complexity of the solution should be minimal.

How should you provision the connectivity solution?
A . Provision a Partner Interconnect through your ISP.
B . Provision a Dedicated Interconnect instead of a VPN.
C . Create multiple VPN tunnels to account for the packet losses, and increase bandwidth using
ECMP.
D . Use network compression over your VPN to increase the amount of data you can send over your VPN.

Answer: A

Explanation:

Direct Interconnect will be too expensive and also an overkill for this requirement. Managing multiple tunnels that too with packet loss consideration is complex also. Whereas partner interconnect fits the bill with providing required bandwidth but not super expensive also once setup not too complex too manage.
