GCP Professional Cloud Security Engineer Practice Question

A Swiss fintech has adopted an internal policy that is stricter than local regulations: it requires that every byte of customer data, plus all associated processing, stay physically within Switzerland. Each quarter the firm must run a 24-hour Monte Carlo risk simulation that needs about 128 vCPUs and 4 TB of RAM. To keep costs low, the team plans to provision compute resources only during each run. Which Compute Engine deployment best satisfies the policy and technical requirements?

  • Start a single m2-ultramem VM with at least 128 vCPUs in region europe-west6 (Zurich) only for each simulation run.

  • Run the workload on a batch of a2-megagpu-16g instances in region us-central1 and shut them down when the job finishes.

  • Deploy a regional managed instance group of n1-highmem-32 VMs across the europe-west multi-region and delete the instances after completion.

  • Provision a sole-tenant node group of n2d-highcpu-128 VMs in region europe-west4 (Netherlands) with preemptible instances for lower cost.
