Your company just finished a rapid lift and shift to Google Compute Engine for your compute needs. You have another 9 months to design and deploy a more cloud-native solution. Specifically, you want a system that is no-ops and auto-scaling. Which two compute products should you choose? (Choose two.)

Correct answer: Google Kubernetes Engine with containers, Google App Engine Standard Environment.
Why this is the answer
Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE) with containers provides a managed Kubernetes environment, offering automatic scaling, self-healing, and declarative configuration, aligning with no-ops principles. It allows for containerized applications, providing flexibility and portability. Google App Engine Standard Environment is a fully managed, serverless platform that automatically scales applications up and down to zero, requiring minimal operational overhead, thus meeting the no-ops and auto-scaling requirements. Compute Engine with containers, custom instance types, or managed instance groups still requires significant operational management of the underlying VMs, which contradicts the "no-ops" requirement. While managed instance groups offer auto-scaling, they don't abstract away the infrastructure to the same extent as GKE or App Engine Standard.
