GCP ACE · Question 13 · Domain 2.2: Planning and configuring compute resources
You are designing an architecture for a nightly batch processing job. The job takes about 3 hours to complete, processes data from Cloud Storage, and is highly fault-tolerant (if a node fails, the master node simply reassigns the task to another node). You need to minimize compute costs.
Which TWO configurations should you include in your design? (Select TWO)
