Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
What is the Compute Engine feature that allows VMs to be added to or subtracted from an application based on load metrics?
A
Network time protocol (NTP)
B
Autoscaling
C
Persistent disks
D
Load balancing
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Autoscaling. Compute Engine offers autoscaling to automatically add or remove VM instances from a managed instance group (MIG) based on increases or decreases in load. Autoscaling lets your apps gracefully handle increases in traffic, and it reduces cost when the need for resources is lower.

Detailed explanation-2: -Google Compute Engine (GCE) is an infrastructure as a service (IaaS) offering that allows clients to run workloads on Google’s physical hardware. Google Compute Engine provides a scalable number of virtual machines (VMs) to serve as large compute clusters for that purpose.

Detailed explanation-3: -Autoscaling is a cloud computing feature that enables organizations to scale cloud services such as server capacities or virtual machines up or down automatically, based on defined situations such as traffic ir utilization levels.

Detailed explanation-4: -Compute Engine offers scalable and flexible virtual machine computing capabilities in the cloud, with options to utilize certain CPUs, GPUs, or Cloud TPUs.
