CLOUD-DIGITAL-LEADER · Question #416

An organization is operating multiple workloads in containers and requires full control of how the workloads are configured. Which Google Cloud service should the organization use?

The correct answer is C. Kubernetes Engine. Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE) is the correct service for running containerized workloads when full control over configuration is required.

Why each option

Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE) is the correct service for running containerized workloads when full control over configuration is required.

ACloud Run

Cloud Run is a fully managed serverless container platform that abstracts away infrastructure and cluster configuration, providing less control in exchange for reduced operational overhead.

BCompute Engine

Compute Engine provides virtual machines for running arbitrary workloads but is not a container orchestration service and does not natively manage containerized workloads at scale.

CKubernetes EngineCorrect

Google Kubernetes Engine provides a fully managed Kubernetes environment where operators retain granular control over cluster configuration, networking, node pools, resource limits, scheduling policies, and workload definitions via Kubernetes manifests. This level of control is inherent to the Kubernetes model and distinguishes GKE from more abstracted container services. Organizations can configure every aspect of how their containerized workloads run while still benefiting from Google's managed control plane.

DCloud Functions

Cloud Functions is a serverless, event-driven execution environment for single-purpose functions and does not support running or configuring multi-container workloads.
