Okay thanks for letting me know . So you have 1 month to build the best possible base you can ? And then it resets ? <| sep |> Thank you all for your help and Happy Thanksgiving . <| sep |> Hi ! I ' m the product manager for Preemptible VMs . We have no SLAs around availability of Preemptible VMs but depending on the nature of your product I may be able to provide some guidance . I will private message you my email address . For others reading Preemptible VMs are a highly discounted variant of GCE VMs that have a maximum uptime of 24 hours and can be preempted by GCE . This is not the case for regular GCE VM instances . Thanks ! <| sep |> Should they ? I by no means support their statements , but I do support freedom of speech .
