Associate Cloud Engineer Exam - Question 65


You need to deploy an application, which is packaged in a container image, in a new project. The application exposes an HTTP endpoint and receives very few requests per day. You want to minimize costs. What should you do?

Show Answer
Correct Answer: AB

To minimize costs while deploying a containerized application that receives very few requests per day, the best option is Cloud Run. Cloud Run automatically scales up and down from zero based on traffic, meaning you only pay for resources when requests are being processed. This makes it particularly cost-effective for applications with irregular or low traffic. No infrastructure management is required, ensuring reduced overhead and maintenance efforts.

A should be cheapest as no infra needed.

Listen to this guy. Google says "Cloud Run abstracts away all infrastructure management by automatically scaling up and down from zero almost instantaneously—depending on traffic. Cloud Run only charges you for the exact resources you use."

Correct Answer should be A: Cloud Run takes any container images and pairs great with the container ecosystem: Cloud Build, Artifact Registry, Docker. ... No infrastructure to manage: once deployed, Cloud Run manages your services so you can sleep well. Fast autoscaling. Cloud Run automatically scales up or down from zero to N depending on traffic. https://cloud.google.com/run

Definitely the correct answer is A, which is deploying the container on Cloud Run, is the most cost-effective option to deploy a container image that exposes an HTTP endpoint and receives very few requests per day. Cloud Run is a fully managed serverless platform that allows you to run stateless containers and automatically scales up or down based on incoming requests. With Cloud Run, you only pay for the actual usage, so if your application receives very few requests per day, your costs will be minimal.

What does It mean, "Cloud Run on GKE"? B is not correct at all, there is no such thing – “Cloud Run on GKE”. Or you deploy on “Cloud Run” Or on “GKE”.

Don't forget that cloud run invoking rules "Cloud Run redirects all HTTP requests to HTTPS but terminates TLS before they reach your web service." in last case when i use cloud run with POST request and HTTP method, it will generate bug which redirect the request to GET https header :) https://cloud.google.com/run/docs/triggering/https-request#

Can anyone confirm these questions are the exact questions that would come in the exam? I can see there are 201 questions mentioned but I got only 197. Also, with each question, its mentioned topic 1. Does that mean there are more topics for ACE exam?
