-
A
Custom-built database
-
B
Cloud Bigtable
-

You are configuring IAM roles for a team. What happens if you assign both Editor and Viewer roles to a user?
-
A
User will have Editor permissions only.
-
B
User will have Viewer permissions only.
-
C
User will have combined permissions.

Which Google Cloud service allows you to run containers without managing the underlying infrastructure?
-
A
Google Kubernetes Engine
-
B
Cloud Functions
-
C
Cloud Run
-
D
App Engine
