GCP Professional Cloud Architect Practice Question
Your media team has uploaded thousands of two-hour podcast recordings (FLAC files) into a Cloud Storage bucket. Editors need fully punctuated transcripts with word-level time offsets so they can load the results into BigQuery for analysis. Processing can occur asynchronously, and the team prefers to avoid building or operating any custom speech-recognition infrastructure. Which Google Cloud service should you recommend to meet these requirements?
Run the Transcoder API to generate caption files from the FLAC recordings and import them into BigQuery.
Train a custom speech-recognition model on Vertex AI and deploy it behind Cloud Run for transcription.
Invoke Cloud Speech-to-Text asynchronous recognition on the Cloud Storage files, enabling automatic punctuation and word time offsets.
Use Cloud Text-to-Speech to convert the audio into text and load the output into BigQuery.
A pre-trained, fully managed service is required that can accept long audio files from Cloud Storage, perform asynchronous processing, add automatic punctuation, and return word-level timestamps. Cloud Speech-to-Text meets all of these needs through its long-running recognise methods and optional features such as automatic punctuation and word time offsets. Cloud Text-to-Speech performs the opposite task-generating audio from text. Transcoder API handles video and audio format conversion but does not create transcripts. Building and hosting a custom model on Vertex AI would contradict the requirement to avoid managing speech-recognition infrastructure.
