Google Cloud Professional Cloud Architect — Question 104

Your company just finished a rapid lift and shift to Google Compute Engine for your compute needs. You have another 9 months to design and deploy a more cloud-native solution. Specifically, you want a system that is no-ops and auto-scaling.
Which two compute products should you choose? (Choose two.)

Answer options

• A. Compute Engine with containers
• B. Google Kubernetes Engine with containers
• C. Google App Engine Standard Environment
• D. Compute Engine with custom instance types
• E. Compute Engine with managed instance groups

Correct answer: B, C

Explanation

The correct choices are Google Kubernetes Engine with containers and Google App Engine Standard Environment because both options provide auto-scaling capabilities and require minimal operational management. In contrast, Compute Engine options, while powerful, necessitate more manual intervention for scaling and management, making them less suitable for a no-ops requirement.
