A group of data scientists wants to preprocess a large dataset that will be delivered in batches. The data will be written to Cloud Storage and processed by custom applications running on Compute Engine instances. They want to process the data as quickly as possible when it arrives and are willing to pay the cost of running up to 10 instances at a time. When a batch is finished, they’d like to reduce the number of instances to 1 until the next batch arrives. The batches do not arrive on a known schedule. How would you recommend that they provision Compute Engine instances?
