An organization wants to move from a strategic cloud adoption maturity level to a trans-formational one. How should the organization change the way they scale?

A. None of these

C. Deploy changes programmatically.

D. Review changes manually.

Your customer is making a decision on whether to move to Google Cloud. Their key concern is about 10,000 VMs that are part of their IT infrastructure used across more than 110 applications. They are apprehensive of too many changes at this stage. They want to get to Google Cloud in the easiest way possible with minimal disruption. What option would you recommend for them?

A. Use Migrate for Anthos

B. Lift and shift the VMs to serverless options like App Engine Flex.

C. Re-architect on-prem to use Kubernetes and then slowly extend and bridge the on-prem data center to the Google Cloud data center.

D. Use Migrate for Compute

Each of the three cloud service models-infrastructure as a service (IaaS), platform as a service (PaaS), and software as a service (SaaS)-offers benefits between flexibility and levels of management by the cloud provider and the customer.

Why would SaaS be the right choice of service model?

A. You want a balance between flexibility for the customer and the level of management by the cloud provider

B. You want to minimize the level of management by the customer

C. You want to maximize flexibility for the customer.

D. You want to be able to shift your emphasis between flexibility and management by the cloud provider as business needs change

A customer of yours has an SLA with their client that a particular service will respond within 4 sec-onds. The end client has reported that it feels slower. Your engineers do a trial at the client site and notice that there seems to be a delay for many of the requests. It's your team's responsibility to iden-tify the issue quickly within the strict timeline for fixes according to the contract, and then fix it. What should you do?

A. Recommend a move to serverless technologies which will scale automatically on demand.

B. Add logging statements at multiple points in the application, build it, and deploy it. Now new requests will give us information on latency in the logs.

C. Check if the browsers used by the client are different from yours. If they are, that's most likely the issue. Ensure that everybody uses the latest version of the browser that you are also using.

D. Use Cloud Trace to collect latency data and track how requests propagate and why there is a delay.

Your Coustomer's Organization has decided to move to the cloud. They currently run VMs on-promise but their goal on Google cloud is to run containers, primarily on Google Kuber-nete's Engine. They have a lease for their private data center for another year that they have already paid for. What could be strategy they could adopt in migrating?

A. Jump and Ramp.

B. Improve and Move.

C. Rip and Replace.

D. Left and Shift.

An organization is struggling to keep up with the growth of their application which is running on legacy infrastructure. What might be holding them back?

A. The inaccessibility of their data due to perimeter security

B. The overreliance on platform as a service

C. The time it takes their serverless compute function to scale

D. The cost of provisioning hardware for peak usage

An organization is building advanced machine learning models in Google Cloud by using TensorFlow. They want to develop their models faster with purpose-built hardware. Which solution should the organization use?

A. TPUs

B. CPUs

C. CPUs

D. GPUs

An organization with a commissions-based business model is struggling to predict cloud costs due to fluctuating revenue. How can the organization optimize the use of their cloud resources?

What can customers expect if their cloud provider doesn't meet their service level agreement (SLA)?

A. Increase in subscription fees

B. Cloud service shutdown

C. Refund for service interruption
