• Chose B1

  The correct option is B.An HTTP(S) load balancer provides global load balancing, which can direct user traffic to the closest backend, based on the user's geographic location. Since users in Asia are experiencing high latency when the application is hosted in us-central1, configuring an HTTP(S) load balancer will allow the system to route traffic to the nearest available backend (such as one located in an Asian region), significantly reducing the latency. In contrast, a Network Load Balancer operates at the TCP/UDP level and does not optimize for geographic location, leading to high latency for users far from the us-central1 region.

• Chose B1

  To decrease latency for users in Asia accessing a web application hosted in the us-central1 region, one effective strategy is to leverage content delivery networks (CDNs) that have edge locations in Asia. This helps serve content from a location closer to the users, reducing latency. Therefore, the most suitable option is: B. Configure an HTTP load balancer, and direct the traffic to it.

  Cloud CDN works with the global external Application Load Balancer or the classic Application Load Balancer to deliver content to your users https://cloud.google.com/cdn/docs/overview
