Google Cloud Associate Cloud Engineer ACE — Topic 1 Question 298

Question

You have an application that is currently processing transactions by using a group of managed VM instances. You need to migrate the application so that it is serverless and scalable. You want to implement an asynchronous transaction processing system, while minimizing management overhead. What should you do?

Accepted Answer

Correct answer: C. The correct answer is C. Option C: Use Pub/Sub to acknowledge incoming transactions. Use Cloud Run to process transactions. Cloud Run runs stateless containers serverlessly and scales to zero, minimizing operational overhead. Pub/Sub is a serverless, global messaging service that decouples services and ingests high-volume event streams. This option decouples the components so they scale independently and absorb load spikes.
