You have a large Cloud SQL for PostgreSQL instance. The database instance is not mission-critical, and you want to minimize operational costs. What should you do to lower the cost of backups in this environment?

Suggested Answer: D Vote an answer

By default, for each instance, Cloud SQL retains seven automated backups, in addition to on-demand backups. You can configure how many automated backups to retain (from 1 to 365). We charge a lower rate for backup storage than for other types of instances. https://cloud.google.com/sql/docs/mysql/backup-recovery/backups
