Virtual Machines — Google Cloud Digital Leader Practice Questions
Virtual machines (VMs) are software-based emulations of physical computers that run on shared hardware in a cloud data center, providing isolated compute environments with dedicated CPU and memory allocations. The Google Cloud Digital Leader exam covers VMs because they are the building blocks of IaaS workloads and the target of many migration efforts from on-premises environments. Candidates should understand VM concepts including machine types, preemptible and spot VMs for cost optimization, and the trade-offs between VMs and more managed compute options like containers or serverless functions.
