Your E-commerce business is attracting attention globally and you are planning to scale the business internationally. Local regulations require you to store the data in a specific geographic area, and it can be served globally. How can you design such an architecture?

• Use a public cloud provider
• Use a private cloud provider that globally replicates data storage for fast data access
• Use a public cloud provider that guarantees data location in the required geographic area
• Use a private cloud provider that is only active in the required geographic area

You are expecting a large inflow of traffic in the next two weeks on your website due to an upcoming sale. The traffic is expected to come down to normal after the sale ends. How can you scale to increase compute power for a limited period of time in a cost-effective manner?

• Reserve a very powerful virtual machine using a committed use discount
• Purchase one very powerful physical computer
• Start a very powerful virtual machine without a committed use discount
• Purchase multiple physical computers and load balance workload across them

You are the head of Cloud practices at your company and you need to plan the company’s Cloud Infrastructure expenditures. How should you do it?

• Frequently review cloud resource costs, because costs change often based on the use
• Annually review cloud resource costs as part of planning your organization's overall budget
• You don’t need to worry about infrastructure costs are no longer part of your overall budget on the cloud.
• Use the same approach as you did with on-premises resource planning but involve fewer people

You are the head of security at your organization and you want to identify if any virtual machines in your company have a security vulnerability. How can you effectively look for virtual machines that do not have the latest security update?

• Identify virtual machines running vulnerable disk images in the Security Command Center.
• Download a recent PCI audit report from the Compliance Reports Manager.
• Identify virtual machines started more than 2 weeks ago in the Security Command Center
• Download a recent SOC 1 audit report from the Compliance Reports Manager.

You are running an accounting server on Windows servers. The application is only needed during working hours and the servers are shut down when the instances are not required during weekends. The Windows server licenses are up for renewal in a month. How can you optimize Windows server licensing costs?

• Negotiate a cost reduction with your current hosting provider wherein infrastructure cost is reduced when workloads are not in use and renew the licenses for additional 5 years.
• Negotiate a cost reduction by committing to an automatic renewal of the licenses at the end of the 1 year period. Renew your licenses for an additional period of 2 years.
• Migrate the workloads to Compute Engine with a bring-your-own-license (BYOL) model
• Migrate the workloads to Compute Engine with a pay-as-you-go (PAYG) model

You are running a distributed photo-sharing platform on compute engine VMs. Different parts of the applications run on different Virtual machines and you need fast(less than 10 milliseconds) communication between them. How can you achieve this while also taking care of redundancy?

• In a single zone within a single region
• In multiple regions, using one zone per region
• In multiple regions, using multiple zones per region
• In different zones within a single region

You are head of Cloud Migration strategy for a small bank. You are migrating their on-premises environment to the Cloud. You need to create a comprehensive document detailing which resource components still need to be assigned ownership. Which two functions does a public cloud provider own? (Choose two.)

• Hardware maintenance
• Infrastructure architecture
• Infrastructure deployment automation
• Hardware capacity management
• Fixing application security issues

You are working at an inter-design studio where you need to provide the designers with a Cloud-based rendering service to render their designs. The rendering can be interrupted at any time and can be restarted later. Any individual scene rendering takes less than 12 hours to complete. Also, note that there is no Service Level Agreement (SLA) for the completion time for all scenes. Results will be stored in a global Cloud Storage bucket. The compute resources can be in any geographical location. How to run this software on Google Cloud in a cost-optimized way?

• Use preemptible instances to deploy the application on Compute Engine
• Run the application in an unmanaged instance group
• Create a reservation for the minimum number of Compute Engine instances you will use
• Start more instances with fewer virtual centralized processing units (vCPUs) instead of fewer instances with more vCPUs

You are working as a Cloud Architect at a financial institution and you need to prevent the VMs created in your environments from having internet access. Different teams create new folders and projects in your Organization. How can you restrict all virtual machines from having an external IP address?

• restrict virtual machine instances from having an external IP address by defining an organization policy at the root organization node.
• define a constraint to restrict virtual machine instances from having an external IP address using an organization policy on all existing folders.
• restrict virtual machine instances from having an external IP address by defining an organization policy on all existing projects.
• Communicate with the different teams and agree that each time a virtual machine is created, it must be configured without an external IP address

You are working for an international retailer that has servers running mission-critical workloads on its on-premises data centers around the world. You want to stop managing infrastructure. How can you manage these workloads consistently and centrally?

• Migrate the workloads to a public cloud
• Migrate the workloads to a central office building
• Migrate the workloads to multiple local co-location facilities
• Migrate the workloads to multiple local private clouds
