What are the key components of the GCP resource hierarchy?

• Buckets

• Organization

• Folders

• Projects

Why is resource hierarchy important in GCP?

• It defines how access control (IAM) is inherited

• It affects billing structure

• It controls availability zone selection

• It helps manage policies centrally

What are GCP quotas and limits used for?

• Preventing accidental overuse of resources

• Ensuring fair usage across users

• Determining monthly billing limits

• Managing service capacity

Which of the following are valid use cases for labels in GCP?

• Grouping resources by environment (e.g., dev, prod)

• Enabling cost tracking in reports

• Assigning static IP addresses

• Filtering resources in GCP Console

What features does the Billing & Budget tool in GCP offer?

• Set alerts when spending approaches a threshold

• Limit the maximum spend per month

• Track spending by project or label

• View forecasted billing trends

Which views are available in the GCP Billing Console?

• Cost Overview

Why are virtual networks important in GCP?

• They connect cloud resources privately

• They control how resources communicate

• They enforce project-level billing

• They provide isolation and security

What are key characteristics of a GCP VPC (Virtual Private Cloud)?

• Global by default, with regional subnets

• Auto-assigns external IPs to all VMs

• Supports Shared VPC for cross-project networking

• Provides private IP communication across zones

What are best practices when designing VPC networks and subnets?

• Use minimal subnet sizes to limit waste

• Separate subnets by environment or function

• Design for scalability and IP planning

• Reuse default VPC for all projects

What's true about IP addresses and routing in GCP?

• Internal IPs are used for communication within the network

• External IPs are needed for public internet access

• All VMs get both IPs by default

• Custom routes can override default routing
