An enterprise is architecting a mission-critical hybrid network topology connecting an on-premises data center to Google Cloud. The architecture must satisfy the following technical and operational requirements:
Which hybrid networking design should you implement?
This architecture establishes a centralized transit hub-and-spoke topology that uses Cloud Interconnect for high-throughput, redundant hybrid connectivity. It leverages an internal passthrough Network Load Balancer as a next hop to distribute traffic evenly across a managed instance group (MIG) of firewall Network Virtual Appliances (NVAs), while using Cloud Router summary custom advertisements to manage BGP prefix scale.
Combining a transit hub VPC with an internal load balancer as the next hop provides the resilience, scalability, and deep inspection required by enterprise landing zones without compromising routing stability.
