Zorluk: KolaySelecting and Designing Compute and Application Platforms

An organization wants to host a stateless HTTP microservice on Google Cloud. The architecture team has established two strict operational constraints:
1. The compute platform must automatically scale down to zero instances during periods of no traffic to minimize idle costs.
2. The infrastructure must be fully serverless, requiring zero management or maintenance of underlying clusters or virtual machines.

Which TWO Google Cloud compute platforms meet these criteria?

  1. Cloud RunCevap
  2. Cloud FunctionsCevap
  3. C
    Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE) Standard
  4. D
    Compute Engine Managed Instance Groups

Cevap

Cloud Run and Cloud Functions both provide fully managed serverless execution that automatically scales to zero instances when idle with zero infrastructure management overhead.
Cloud Run and Cloud Functions are both fully managed serverless compute services on Google Cloud. They automatically scale capacity based on incoming traffic volume, including scaling down to zero when no requests are actively being processed. This eliminates baseline compute costs during idle periods and requires no infrastructure provisioning, operating system patching, or cluster management.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify operational requirements
The workload requires stateless HTTP execution, automatic scaling to zero when idle, and zero cluster or infrastructure management.
To evaluate candidate Google Cloud compute platforms against cost and operational overhead constraints.
2
Evaluate serverless compute platforms
Cloud Run and Cloud Functions natively scale down to zero instances during idle periods and eliminate server management.
Both offerings are fully managed GCP serverless platforms designed for stateless HTTP workloads.
3
Evaluate infrastructure-managed alternatives
Google Kubernetes Engine and Compute Engine Managed Instance Groups introduce node and VM management overhead and baseline compute costs.
These services do not satisfy the requirement for zero server management and native scale-to-zero compute behavior.
