| What are Cloud SQL backups used for | Creating automated or on-demand backups of your database for recovery |
| What are Compute Engine machine types | Predefined configurations of virtual CPUs and memory like n1, e2, and custom types |
| What are Google Cloud's regional resources | Resources tied to a specific region for redundancy and latency reduction |
| What are labels in Google Cloud services | Key-value pairs used to organize and manage resources |
| What are reserved IP addresses in Google Cloud | Static IPs allocated for virtual machines within a project |
| What database engines does Cloud SQL support | MySQL, PostgreSQL, and SQL Server |
| What does Kubernetes Engine automatically manage | Cluster provisioning, scaling, and updates for Kubernetes workloads |
| What is a benefit of using Cloud Storage buckets | Highly available and globally distributed storage with lifecycle policies |
| What is a common use case for App Engine | Developing web apps with minimal infrastructure management |
| What is a persistent disk in Compute Engine | Block storage for virtual machines, which retains data beyond VM deletion |
| What is a zone in Google Cloud | A deployment area within a region, used to ensure high availability |
| What is an autoscaler in Compute Engine | Automatically adjusts VM instances within a group based on load |
| What is App Engine | A fully managed Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS) for building and deploying web applications |
| What is App Engine's scaling model options | Manual, Basic, and Automatic scaling |
| What is Cloud SQL | A fully managed relational database service supporting MySQL, PostgreSQL, and SQL Server |
| What is Cloud SQL query insights | A tool for monitoring and analyzing database performance and queries |
| What is Cloud SQL's high availability configuration | Uses failover replicas to ensure minimal disruption during outages |
| What is Cloud Storage | A unified object storage solution for storing unstructured data like images and videos |
| What is Cloud Storage Nearline | A storage class optimized for data accessed less than once a month |
| What is Cloud Storage Transfer Service | A tool for moving data between storage systems or from on-premises to Google Cloud |
| What is Compute Engine | Google Cloud's Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) offering for virtual machines |
| What is Compute Engine Shielded VM | Secure virtual machines with features like secure boot and VTPM |
| What is Compute Engine's VM Instance Groups | Sets of virtual machines for scaling and load balancing |
| What is Kubernetes Engine | Google Cloud's managed Kubernetes platform for running containerized applications |
| What is Kubernetes Engine's node pool | A group of nodes within a cluster with identical configurations |
| What is Kubernetes Engine's pod | The smallest and most basic deployable unit managed by Kubernetes |

| What is the benefit of using Cloud Storage Multi-Regional Class | Provides high availability across multiple regions without user intervention |
| What is the concept of regions in Google Cloud | Geographical locations where Google Cloud resources can be deployed |
| What is the default storage class in Cloud Storage | Standard Storage optimized for frequent access |
| What is the primary benefit of App Engine's Automatic Scaling | Automatically adjusts resources based on application demand |
| What is the primary difference between object storage and file storage | Object storage stores data as objects, while file storage organizes data in a hierarchy |
| What is the primary use case for Compute Engine | Running virtual machines for applications requiring more control or custom configurations |
| What is the purpose of Cloud Storage Lifecycle Management | Automates actions like transition or deletion based on object age or storage class |
| What is the role of a Kubernetes Engine deployment | Defines a desired state of pods and manages scaling and updates |
This deck covers foundational Google Cloud services like Compute Engine, App Engine, Cloud Storage, Cloud SQL, and Kubernetes Engine.
