Google Cloud Professional Cloud Architect — Question 55

You are analyzing and defining business processes to support your startup's trial usage of GCP, and you don't yet know what consumer demand for your product will be. Your manager requires you to minimize GCP service costs and adhere to Google best practices. What should you do?

Answer options

• C. Utilize free tier and committed use discounts. Provision a staff position for service cost management.
• D. Utilize free tier and committed use discounts. Provide training to the team about service cost management.
