Google Cloud Professional Cloud Architect PCA — Topic 1 Question 52

Question

You have an application that will run on Compute Engine. You need to design an architecture that takes into account a disaster recovery plan that requires your application to fail over to another region in case of a regional outage. What should you do?

Accepted Answer

Correct answer: C. The correct answer is C. Option C: Deploy the application on two Compute Engine instance groups, each in the same project but in a different region. Use the first instance group to serve traffic, and use the HTTP load balancing service to fail over to... Compute Engine provides configurable virtual machines when you need full control of the OS. A load balancer distributes traffic across healthy backends in multiple zones for availability and scale. By spanning multiple Availability Zones / adding redundancy, this option provides the high availability and resilience required.
