Zorluk: OrtaCreating Billing Budgets, Alerts, and BigQuery Exports

A company manages a workload on Google Cloud with an established monthly budget of 10,000.Thefinancialoperationsteamrequiresnotificationsundertwospecificconditions:whenactualcumulativemonthlycostsreach10,000. The financial operations team requires notifications under two specific conditions: when actual cumulative monthly costs reach 7,000, and as soon as spending trends indicate that total costs will exceed $10,000 by the end of the current billing cycle. How should a Cloud Engineer configure the budget alert rules in Cloud Billing to meet these requirements?

  1. Create one threshold rule set to 70% of Actual spend, and a second threshold rule set to 100% of Forecasted spend.Cevap
  2. B
    Create a single threshold rule set to 70% of Actual spend, and select the option to automatically shut down instances if the forecasted cost exceeds 100%.
  3. C
    Grant the Billing Account Viewer role to the Cloud Pub/Sub service account so that Google Cloud automatically generates linear trend metrics for alert policies.
  4. D
    Enable the Cloud Billing API in the workload's consumer project and create a custom Cloud Monitoring metric for end-of-month cost projection.

Cevap

Configure two threshold rules in the Cloud Billing budget: one rule set to 70% based on Actual spend and another rule set to 100% based on Forecasted spend.
Google Cloud Billing budgets permit defining multiple threshold rules per budget based on either 'Actual' spend or 'Forecasted' spend. A threshold of 70% Actual triggers when accrued spend hits 7,000,whileathresholdof1007,000, while a threshold of 100% Forecasted triggers as soon as Google Cloud's predictive algorithm determines that total spend by the end of the calendar month will reach or exceed 10,000.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the two required notification conditions.
Condition 1 is 7,000actualspendoutof7,000 actual spend out of 10,000 (70% Actual). Condition 2 is projected spend reaching $10,000 by month-end (100% Forecasted).
Cloud Billing budget thresholds can evaluate against either actual cumulative spend or predicted end-of-month spend.
2
Configure the threshold basis for each condition in the Cloud Billing Console budget creator.
Add a threshold of 70% with trigger type 'Actual', and add a threshold of 100% with trigger type 'Forecasted'.
Combining actual and forecasted triggers allows proactive alerts before overruns occur as well as accurate milestones during the billing period.
