A healthtech enterprise is modeling monthly infrastructure expenses in the Google Cloud Pricing Calculator for a healthcare analytics solution. The architecture consists of Compute Engine VMs running continuous data processing jobs, Cloud Storage buckets for short-term and long-term log retention, and network egress to an external auditor. Which of the following statements accurately describe how cost estimation principles and discount mechanisms apply when configuring this estimate in the Pricing Calculator? (Select TWO.)
- Sustained Use Discounts (SUDs) are automatically calculated and applied by the calculator for eligible Compute Engine VM instance types running for a significant portion of the billing month.Cevap
- Outbound data transfers from Google Cloud to an external non-Google Cloud destination incur egress costs and must be explicitly specified in the calculator.Cevap
- CCommitted Use Discounts (CUDs) and Sustained Use Discounts (SUDs) can be stacked simultaneously on the exact same Compute Engine vCPU and memory resources within the calculator.
- DSpot VMs configured in the calculator will receive Sustained Use Discounts (SUDs) if they run continuously for more than 25% of the month.
Cevap
The correct statements are that Sustained Use Discounts (SUDs) are automatically applied in the Pricing Calculator for eligible Compute Engine instances running for a significant portion of the month, and outbound network traffic to external non-GCP destinations incurs egress charges that must be explicitly entered into the calculator.
Sustained Use Discounts (SUDs) automatically accrue when eligible Compute Engine instances run for more than 25% of a billing month, and the pricing calculator reflects this baseline behavior. Furthermore, data egress to external non-GCP destinations carries network usage fees that must be manually input into the estimator for complete budget planning.
