Zorluk: KolayPlanning Compute Engine Resources and Machine Types

A system administrator is planning the Compute Engine provisioning strategy for two distinct company workloads: a fault-tolerant nightly batch data processing job and a steady-state web frontend server that operates continuously 24/7 throughout the year. Which TWO provisioning and pricing strategies should the administrator choose to optimize compute costs while satisfying operational requirements? (Select TWO)

  1. Provision Spot VMs for the nightly batch processing workload to reduce resource costs.Cevap
  2. Purchase Committed Use Discounts (CUDs) for the steady-state web frontend instances.Cevap
  3. C
    Provision Spot VMs for the steady-state web frontend to eliminate persistent baseline running expenses.
  4. D
    Rely solely on Sustained Use Discounts to achieve maximum cost reductions on short batch jobs running under 10 minutes.

Cevap

Select the option recommending Spot VMs for the fault-tolerant nightly batch processing workload and the option recommending Committed Use Discounts (CUDs) for the continuous 24/7 web frontend instances.
Spot VMs provide significant cost reductions for stateless, fault-tolerant batch workloads that can tolerate unexpected interruptions. Meanwhile, Committed Use Discounts (CUDs) deliver substantial savings for continuous 24/7 steady-state resources without risk of preemption.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Analyze the workload characteristics for the batch processing job.
Identified that the nightly batch job is fault-tolerant and transient, making it an ideal candidate for low-cost Spot VM instances.
Spot VMs provide large discounts for workloads that can handle preemption.
2
Analyze the workload characteristics for the continuous web frontend.
Identified that the web frontend runs 24/7 throughout the year, requiring reliable availability and predictable baseline resource capacity.
Committed Use Discounts (CUDs) require a commitment to a consistent level of vCPU and memory usage over 1 or 3 years in exchange for significant cost savings.
