Your company currently operates an extensive GCP organization encompassing hundreds of projects and a dedicated billing account. Recently, your company acquired another firm that also manages a vast GCP organization with hundreds of its own projects and a separate billing account. To streamline financial reporting and expense tracking, you aim to merge the GCP costs from both organizations into one unified invoice starting from tomorrow. What actions should you take to achieve this consolidation of costs?
Explanation:
The correct answer is A. Linking the acquired company's projects to your company's billing account is the quickest and most practical solution to consolidate all GCP costs onto a single invoice by tomorrow. This approach allows for centralized billing management and easier tracking of expenses without requiring significant changes to the existing project configurations or organizational structure. Options C and D involve migrating projects, which is more time-consuming and complex. Option B focuses on exporting billing data to BigQuery for analysis rather than achieving immediate cost consolidation onto a single invoice.
