1You are migrating workloads to the cloud. The goal of the migration is to serve customers worldwide as quickly as possible According to local regulations, certain
data is required to be stored in a specific geographic area, and it can be served worldwide. You need to design the architecture and deployment for your
workloads.
What should you do?
Select a public cloud provider that is only active in the required geographic area
Select a private cloud provider that globally replicates data storage for fast data access
Select a public cloud provider that guarantees data location in the required geographic area
Select a private cloud provider that is only active in the required geographic area
Answer: C
2Your organization needs a large amount of extra computing power within the next two weeks.
After those two weeks, the need for the additional resources will end.
Which is the most cost-effective approach?
Use a committed use discount to reserve a very powerful virtual machine
Purchase one very powerful physical computer
Start a very powerful virtual machine without using a committed use discount
Purchase multiple physical computers and scale workload across them
Answer: C
3Your organization needs to plan its cloud infrastructure expenditures.
Which should your organization do?
Review cloud resource costs frequently, because costs change often based on use
Review cloud resource costs annually as part of planning your organizationג€™s overall budget
If your organization uses only cloud resources, infrastructure costs are no longer part of your overall budget
Involve fewer people in cloud resource planning than your organization did for on-premises resource planning
Answer: A
4The operating systems of some of your organization's virtual machines may have a security vulnerability.
How can your organization most effectively identify all virtual machines that do not have the latest security update?
View the Security Command Center to identify virtual machines running vulnerable disk images
View the Compliance Reports Manager to identify and download a recent PCI audit
View the Security Command Center to identify virtual machines started more than 2 weeks ago
View the Compliance Reports Manager to identify and download a recent SOC 1 audit
Answer: A
5You are currently managing workloads running on Windows Server for which your company owns the licenses. Your workloads are only needed during working
hours, which allows you to shut down the instances during the weekend. Your Windows Server licenses are up for renewal in a month, and you want to optimize
your license cost.
What should you do?
Renew your licenses for an additional period of 3 years. Renew your licenses for an additional period of 3 years. Negotiate a cost reduction with your current hosting provider wherein infrastructure cost is reduced when workloads are not in use
Renew your licenses for an additional period of 2 years. Negotiate a cost reduction by committing to an automatic renewal of the licenses at the end of the 2 year period
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
Answer: D
6Your organization runs a distributed application in the Compute Engine virtual machines. Your organization needs redundancy, but it also needs extremely fast
communication (less than 10 milliseconds) between the parts of the application in different virtual machines.
Where should your organization locate this virtual machines?
In a single zone within a single region
In different zones within a single region
In multiple regions, using one zone per region
In multiple regions, using multiple zones per region
Answer: B
7An organization decides to migrate their on-premises environment to the cloud. They need to determine 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
Answer: A, D
8You are a program manager within a Software as a Service (SaaS) company that offers rendering software for animation studios. Your team needs the ability to
allow scenes to be scheduled at will and to be interrupted at any time to restart later. Any individual scene rendering takes less than 12 hours to complete, and
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
are not bound to any single geographical location. This software needs to run on Google Cloud in a cost-optimized way.
What should you do?
Deploy the application on Compute Engine using preemptible instances
Develop the application so it can run 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
Answer: A
9Your manager wants to restrict communication of all virtual machines with internet access; with resources in another network; or with a resource outside Compute
Engine. It is expected that different teams will create new folders and projects in the near future.
How would you restrict all virtual machines from having an external IP address?
Define an organization policy at the root organization node to restrict virtual machine instances from having an external IP address
Define an organization policy on all existing folders to define a constraint to restrict virtual machine instances from having an external IP address
Define an organization policy on all existing projects to restrict virtual machine instances from having an external IP address
Communicate with the different teams and agree that each time a virtual machine is created, it must be configured without an external IP address
Answer: A
10Your multinational organization has servers running mission-critical workloads on its premises around the world. You want to be able to manage these workloads
consistently and centrally, and you want to stop managing infrastructure.
What should your organization do?
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
