Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
Google Cloud Functions is the best choice for deploying an application that needs to process events from Google Cloud services because it is serverless, automatically scales with demand, and directly integrates with various Google Cloud services to respond to events.
- A. Correct.
Google Cloud Functions is a serverless execution environment that can automatically respond to events from Google Cloud services, making it ideal for processing events.
- B. Incorrect.
Google App Engine is a platform for building scalable web applications and mobile backends, but it is not specifically designed for event-driven architectures.
- C. Incorrect.
Google Compute Engine provides virtual machines but requires more manual setup and management to handle events, making it less efficient for this use case.
- D. Incorrect.
Google Kubernetes Engine is a managed Kubernetes service that can handle event-driven architectures but involves more complexity in setup and management compared to Cloud Functions.
