Alibaba Exam ACP-Cloud1 Topic 1 Question 82 Discussion

Actual exam question for Alibaba's ACP-Cloud1 exam
Question #: 82
Topic #: 1
[All ACP-Cloud1 Questions]

You need to create a new ECS instance for a 10-data test. Which of the following billing methods is most cost-effective?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: A

According to the Alibaba Cloud ECS documentation1, the Pay-As-You-Go billing method is flexible and suitable for short-term or uncertain workloads. However, it is also the most expensive option compared to other billing methods. To reduce the cost of Pay-As-You-Go instances, you can purchase a Savings Plan, which is a discount plan that offers lower prices for a fixed amount of hourly usage. A Savings Plan can be applied to any Pay-As-You-Go instance in the same region, regardless of the instance type, operating system, or zone. Therefore, option A is the most cost-effective billing method for a 10-day test, as it allows you to enjoy the flexibility of Pay-As-You-Go and the savings of a fixed commitment. Reference: Billing methods and Savings Plan.

Subscription? No way, that's like signing a contract with the cloud provider's mafia. I'll stick with Pay-As-You-Go, thank you very much. Gotta keep my options open, you know?

I'd go with the Pay-As-You-Go with Savings Plan. It's the most reliable and predictable option. Who needs the thrill of Preemptible instances when you can have a nice, boring, and budget-friendly solution?

Hmm, I think the Preemptible option would be best for a 10-data test. It's the most cost-effective, right? Plus, it's like a game of Russian roulette with your instances - the excitement keeps me on my toes!

Subscription might be a good option for long-term use, but for a 10-data test, Preemptible seems like the best choice.
