  E. Payments profile
  A. Billing dashboards
  B. Resource labels

  ---

  A label is a key-value pair that helps you organize your Google Cloud resources. You can attach a label to each resource, then filter the resources based on their labels. Information about labels is forwarded to the billing system, so you can break down your billed charges by label. Reference link-https://cloud.google.com/cost-management

• Question 172:

  You are currently managing workloads running on Windows Server for which your company owns the licenses. Your workloads are only needed during working hours, which allows you to shut down the instances during the weekend. Your Windows Server licenses are up for renewal in a month, and you want to optimize your license cost.

  What should you do?

  A. Renew your licenses for an additional period of 3 years. Renew your licenses for an additional period of 3 years. Negotiate a cost reduction with your current hosting provider wherein infrastructure cost is reduced when workloads are not in use
  B. Renew your licenses for an additional period of 2 years. Negotiate a cost reduction by committing to an automatic renewal of the licenses at the end of the 2 year period
  C. Migrate the workloads to Compute Engine with a bring-your-own-license (BYOL) model
  D. Migrate the workloads to Compute Engine with a pay-as-you-go (PAYG) model
  D. Migrate the workloads to Compute Engine with a pay-as-you-go (PAYG) model

  ---

  The PAYG model is more convenient because you only pay for usage. And the case describes that the workloads are only run on certain days.

• Question 176:

  Which technology allows organizations to run multiple computer operating systems on a single piece of physical hardware?

  A. Hypervisor
  B. Containers
  C. Serverless computing
  D. Open source
  A. Hypervisor

• Question 177:

  Your customer currently has a hybrid cloud setup including their on-premises data center and AWS. They are consolidating all their services on Google Cloud as part of a modernization plan and want to spend less IT effort in the future. There are about 10 MySQL and 25 PostgreSQL databases across the two DCs. What is the best option to for them?

  A. Use the Data Catalog Service to manage the metadata of the databases
  B. Use Cloud Dataflow service and setup Google's Cloud SQL as the sink and the others as the source, which will cause the data to flow in as expected.
  C. Use the Database Migration Service
  D. Use the Bare Metal Solution and copy the databases directly as they are on-premises and on AWS.
  C. Use the Database Migration Service

  ---

  Database Migration is the right one to use: "Simplifying migrations to Cloud SQL. Now available for MySQL and PostgreSQL migrations, with SQL Server coming soon." Since the customer also doesn't want to manage their own database installations in the future, Cloud SQL is the best option. https://cloud.google.com/database-migration

• Question 178:

  Your organization is developing a plan for migrating to Google Cloud.

  What is a best practice when initially configuring your Google Cloud environment?

  A. Create a project via Google Cloud Console per department in your company
  B. Define your resource hierarchy with an organization node on top
  C. Create projects based on tem members' requests
  D. Make every member of your company the project owner
  B. Define your resource hierarchy with an organization node on top

  ---

  Explanation Explanation/Reference:The Organization resource is the root node of the Google Cloud resource hierarchy and all resources that belong to an organization are grouped under the organization node. This provides central visibility and control over every resource that belongs to an organization. Reference link-https://cloud.google.com/resource-manager/docs/cloud-platform-resource-hierarchy

• Question 179:

  The government has mandated that companies in a particular section of healthcare must retain all the data they collect for a period of 10 years in case an audit needs to be done. Your client, who is in that industry, needs to follow regulations. In addition, your client wants to do an analysis of the data quite frequently in the first year. They also don't want to be liable for any data beyond year 10. What would recommend for your customer?

  A. Use Cloud Storage with nearline storage in year one and Coldline storage thereaf-ter. Use Object lifecycle management to move between storage types and delete them after 10 years.
  B. Use Cloud Storage with standard storage in year one and Coldline storage there-after. Set a Cloud Scheduler trigger for 1 year to change storage types and 10 years to delete the data.
  C. Use Cloud Storage with standard storage in year one and archival storage thereaf-ter. Use Object lifecycle management to move between storage types and delete them after 10 years.
  D. Use Cloud Storage with standard storage in year one and Coldline storage there-after. Set a Cloud Tasks to trigger for 1 year to change storage types and 10 years to delete the data.
  C. Use Cloud Storage with standard storage in year one and archival storage thereaf-ter. Use Object lifecycle management to move between storage types and delete them after 10 years.

  ---

  Cloud storage supports Object Lifecycle Management. To support common use cases like setting a Time to Live (TTL) for objects, retaining noncurrent versions of objects, or "downgrading" storage classes of objects to help manage costs, Cloud Storage offers the Object Lifecycle Management feature. Standard storage is recommended for frequently accessed data and Archive for data accessed less than once a year. Nearline, Coldline, and Archive offer ultra-low-cost, highly-durable, highly available archival storage. For data accessed less than once a year, Archive is a cost-effective storage option for the long-term preservation of data. Coldline is also ideal for cold storage--data your business expects to touch less than once a quarter. For warmer storage, choose Nearline: data you expect to access less than once a month, but possibly multiple times throughout the year.

• Question 180:

  Which of the following is / are true for Preemptible Instances.

  A. Preemptible Instances have no Service Level Agreement (Compute Engine SLA).
  B. Google Cloud Free Tier credits for compute engine do not apply to preemptible in-stances.
  C. Preemptible instances can't live migrate to a regular VM instance, or be set to au-tomatically restart when there is a maintenance event.
  D. All of the above.
  D. All of the above.

  ---

  Preemptible instances function like normal instances but have the following limitations: -> Compute Engine might stop preemptible instances at any time due to system events. The probability that Compute Engine will stop a preemptible instance for a system event is generally low, but might vary from day to day and from zone to zone depending on current conditions. -> Compute Engine always stops preemptible instances after they run for 24 hours. Certain actions reset this 24-hour counter. -> Preemptible instances are finite Compute Engine resources, so they might not always be available. -> Preemptible instances can't live migrate to a regular VM instance, or be set to automatically restart when there is a maintenance event. -> Due to the above limitations, preemptible instances are not covered by any Service Level Agreement (and, for clarity, are excluded from the Compute Engine SLA). -> The Google Cloud Free Tier credits for Compute Engine do not apply to preemptible instances.
