Which Google Cloud compute service provides standard virtual machine instances that you provision, configure, and manage yourself?

- Cloud Run
Show answer and solution
Correct answer: A. Compute Engine
Compute Engine is Google Cloud's IaaS — VMs you size, configure (OS, disks, network), and operate.
Cloud Run runs containerised services serverlessly, BigQuery is a data warehouse, Pub/Sub is messaging.
