[All Professional Cloud Developer Questions]

You are developing a custom job scheduler that must have a persistent cache containing entries of all Compute Engine VMs that are in a running state (not deleted, stopped, or suspended). The job scheduler checks this cache and only sends jobs to the available Compute Engine VMs in the cache. You need to ensure that the available Compute Engine instance cache is not stale. What should you do?

A. Set up an organization-level Cloud Storage log sink with a filter to capture the audit log events for Compute Engine. Configure an Eventarc trigger that executes when the Cloud Storage bucket is updated and sends these events to the application to update the cache.
B. Set up a Cloud Asset Inventory real-time feed of insert and delete events with the asset types filter set to compute.googleapis.com/Instance. Configure an Eventarc trigger that sends these events to the application to update the cache.
C. Set up an organization-level Pub/Sub log sink with a filter to capture the audit log events for Compute Engine. Configure an Eventarc trigger that sends these events to the application to update the cache.
D. Set up an organization-level BigQuery log sink. Configure the application to query this BigQuery table every minute to retrieve the last minute’s events and update the cache.
