Google Cloud Associate Cloud Engineer ACE — Topic 1 Question 252

Question

Your company developed an application to deploy on Google Kubernetes Engine. Certain parts of the application are not fault-tolerant and are allowed to have downtime. Other parts of the application are critical and must always be available. You need to configure a Google Kubernetes Engine cluster while optimizing for cost. What should you do?

Accepted Answer

Correct answer: D. The correct answer is D. Option D: Create a cluster with both a Spot VM node pool and a nods pool by using standard VMs. Deploy the critical deployments on the node pool by using standard VMs and the fault-tolerant deployments on the Spot VM node pool. Spot VMs use spare capacity at a large discount for fault-tolerant, interruptible workloads. By spanning multiple Availability Zones / adding redundancy, this option provides the high availability and resilience required.
