Explanation
Promoting to static assignments: Google Cloud allows you to promote the existing ephemeral (dynamic) internal IP addresses of VMs to static IP addresses without requiring a VM shutdown or reconfiguration. This process preserves the current IP addresses, ensuring that there is no disruption to database services or dependent applications. Since promoting the IP addresses does not require shutting down or restarting the VMs, the change can be applied seamlessly during normal operations.
