During a planning workshop, an enterprise executive asks how moving existing virtual machines to Compute Engine could improve availability compared with their current on-premises environment, where maintenance windows cause frequent service interruptions. Which Compute Engine capability should you highlight as delivering this business benefit?
Automatic serverless execution so that code runs without provisioning any virtual machines.
Transparent live migration that moves running virtual machines to another host during maintenance without downtime.
Built-in database sharding that removes the need for application changes.
Mandatory deployment of workloads to managed Kubernetes clusters for uniform container orchestration.
Compute Engine can perform transparent live migration for running virtual machines. When Google needs to carry out planned maintenance-such as host patching or hardware upgrades-the platform automatically moves each VM to another host without requiring a reboot. This keeps services online and avoids the customer-visible outages that commonly occur during on-premises maintenance. The other options describe capabilities of different Google Cloud services or make incorrect claims, so they do not address the executive's concern about minimizing downtime for VM workloads.
