Google Associate Cloud Engineer Exam - Topic 9 Question 37 Discussion

Your company publishes large files on an Apache web server that runs on a Compute Engine instance. The Apache web server is not the only application running in the project. You want to receive an email when the egress network costs for the server exceed 100 dollars for the current month as measured by Google Cloud Platform (GCP). What should you do?
D) Use the Stackdriver Logging Agent to export the Apache web server logs to Stackdriver Logging. Create a Cloud Function that uses BigQuery to parse the HTTP response log data in Stackdriver for the current month and sends an email if the size of all HTTP responses, multiplied by current GCP egress prices, totals over 100 dollars. Schedule the Cloud Function using Cloud Scheduler to run hourly.
A) Set up a budget alert on the project with an amount of 100 dollars, a threshold of 100%, and notification type of ''email.''
B) Set up a budget alert on the billing account with an amount of 100 dollars, a threshold of 100%, and notification type of ''email.''
C) Export the billing data to BigQuery. Create a Cloud Function that uses BigQuery to sum the egress network costs of the exported billing data for the Apache web server for the current month and sends an email if it is over 100 dollars. Schedule the Cloud Function using Cloud Scheduler to run hourly.

D sounds overkill for just monitoring egress costs.

C seems way too complicated for just an email alert.

I think B is better since it covers the whole billing account.

A budget alert on the project is the simplest way to go!

I vaguely recall that Stackdriver can help with logging, but I'm not confident if it's necessary for just tracking egress costs.

I’m leaning towards option C because it involves using Cloud Functions, which we covered in our last session, but it seems a bit complex for just monitoring costs.

I think option A sounds familiar, but I feel like we might have practiced something similar with billing accounts instead.

I remember we discussed budget alerts in class, but I'm not sure if it should be set on the project or the billing account.

This is a good question to test our understanding of internal control testing. I'll use the process of elimination to narrow down the options and select the best answer.

I'm a bit confused about whether RADIUS servers would be considered a resource that can be secured with WebAuthn. I'll have to think that one through.

Hmm, I'm a bit confused by the "gotoPriorityExpression NEXT" part. I'll need to make sure I understand how that affects the policy evaluation order.

Hmm, this seems like a tricky one. I'm not entirely sure about the correct order, but I'll try to reason through it step-by-step.
