Actual exam question for Google's Professional Cloud Developer exam

Question #: 45
Topic #: 13

[All Professional Cloud Developer Questions]

You are using Cloud Build for your CI/CD pipeline to complete several tasks, including copying certain files to Compute Engine virtual machines. Your pipeline requires a flat file that is generated in one builder in the pipeline to be accessible by subsequent builders in the same pipeline. How should you store the file so that all the builders in the pipeline can access it?

AStore and retrieve the file contents using Compute Engine instance metadata.

BOutput the file contents to a file in /workspace. Read from the same /workspace file in the subsequent build step.

CUse gsutil to output the file contents to a Cloud Storage object. Read from the same object in the subsequent build step.

DAdd a build argument that runs an HTTP POST via curl to a separate web server to persist the value in one builder. Use an HTTP GET via curl from the subsequent build step to read the value.

Totally agree with B, it keeps everything contained!

Surprised that D is even an option, seems overly complicated.

A sounds risky; metadata isn't meant for file storage!

Option B is the simplest way to share files between builders.

I vaguely recall something about using HTTP requests for data transfer, but it feels overly complicated for this scenario. Option D might not be the best fit.

I feel like using instance metadata isn't the best for sharing files between builders. Option A seems a bit off to me.

I remember we discussed using the /workspace directory for sharing files between build steps. It seems like option B could be the right choice.

I'm not entirely sure, but I think using Cloud Storage with gsutil might be a better approach for larger files. Option C sounds familiar from our practice questions.

This looks like a straightforward question on non-verbal negotiation tactics. I'll focus on the options that clearly involve body language and gestures.

I practiced a similar question, and I feel like the static counter should reflect how many A objects are created, so maybe it's 5?

Hmm, I'm a little unsure about this one. I know broadcast packets are at the data link layer, but I'm not totally clear on how far up the stack they get processed. Let me re-read the question carefully.

I'm a little confused by the wording of the question. What exactly do they mean by "should information be kept"? Is this referring to the audit findings, the audit process itself, or something else? I'll need to read the question more carefully to make sure I understand it fully.
