Full Certification Question

Scenario: A web server sends click events to a Pub/Sub topic as messages. Each message contains an eventTimestamp attribute, which indicates the time when the click occurred. A Dataflow streaming job reads from this Pub/Sub topic, applies transformations, and writes the results to another Pub/Sub topic for use by the advertising department. The advertising department needs to receive each message within 30 seconds of the corresponding click, but they report receiving the messages late. The Dataflow job’s system lag is about 5 seconds, and the data freshness is about 40 seconds. Inspection of a few messages shows no more than 1 second lag between eventTimestamp and publishTime. Question: What is causing the delay in message delivery, and how can you address the issue?
