Exam Associate Cloud Engineer topic 1 question 89 discussion

A is correct - https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/machine-types

A. When creating the VM, use machine type n1-standard-96.

why B ? Option A is the most straightforward and reliable way to ensure your application runs in a similar environment with the required 96 vCPUs

The correct answer is A

A is the correct answer

A is correct, use machine type n1-standard-96 while creating the VM

the goal is to have an equivalent of this app in GCP. therefore A is the best shot we have

A. When creating the VM, use machine type n1-standard-96. Answer A is the correct answer as it directly addresses the requirement to have 96 vCPUs by selecting the n1-standard-96 machine type. This machine type offers 96 vCPUs, 360 GB of memory, and up to 2,400 GB of local SSD storage. https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/machine-resource Answer B is incorrect because selecting a CPU platform alone will not guarantee the availability of the required number of vCPUs. Answer C is incorrect because it is not possible to modify a running Compute Engine instance to add vCPUs. vCPUs can only be added or removed during instance creation or by stopping the instance first. Answer D is incorrect because while Rightsizing Recommendations can help optimize compute resources, they will not guarantee that the application has the required 96 vCPUs to function properly.

A is correct - https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/machine-types

the instance name for 96 vcpu N1 is "n1-highcpu-96", not n1-standard-96. Possible that has been updated since this question came out?

keyword: n1-standard-96

A. is correct, N1 * CPU types --> Skylake, Broadwell, Haswell, Sandy Bridge, and Ivy Bridge * Architecture --> x86 * vCPUs 1 to 96

Go with A, It is the Correct one .

SKYLAKE IS 96VCPU. B is correct.

Go with A

https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/general-purpose-machines - A is correct

Go for A https://cloud.google.com/compute/all-pricing?hl=es
