Zorluk: KolayOptimizing Business Processes through FinOps and Cloud Cost Management

A healthcare startup wants to optimize cloud spending across two specific workloads: a monthly batch log processing task that runs for a few hours and a low-traffic internal web service that sits idle most of the day. Which TWO cost optimization strategies should the team implement to minimize expenses?

  1. Configure Cloud Storage Object Lifecycle Management rules to move processed logs to Nearline or Coldline storage after 30 days.Cevap
  2. Migrate the low-traffic internal web service from a dedicated virtual machine to Cloud Run to benefit from scale-to-zero pricing.Cevap
  3. C
    Purchase 3-year Committed Use Discounts (CUDs) for the virtual machines running the short monthly batch log processing jobs.
  4. D
    Migrate the internal web app database from Cloud SQL to Cloud Spanner to reduce database management fees.
  5. E
    Grant primitive IAM Owner roles to development team leads to enable faster billing resource cleanup.

Cevap

Implementing Object Lifecycle Management rules to transition log data to colder storage classes and deploying the low-traffic web service to Cloud Run.
Transitioning logs to Nearline or Coldline storage using lifecycle policies reduces storage unit costs for aging data. Hosting low-traffic web apps on Cloud Run ensures billing only occurs when requests are processed, eliminating idle server cost.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Analyze storage cost optimization options for batch log data
Identify Object Lifecycle Management as the mechanism to move older logs from Standard storage to Nearline or Coldline storage, lowering cost per gigabyte.
Infrequently accessed historical logs do not require high-frequency retrieval storage classes.
2
Analyze compute cost optimization for low-traffic applications
Select serverless container hosting on Cloud Run.
Cloud Run scales to zero instances when idle, preventing charges for unused VM CPU and memory capacity.

Anahtar Kavram

Optimizing GCP resource expenses using Cloud Storage lifecycle policies and serverless compute scale-to-zero capabilities.
