[Building and implementing CI/CD pipelines for a service]

You recently created a Cloud Build pipeline for deploying Terraform code stored in a GitHub repository. You make Terraform code changes in short-lived branches and sometimes use tags during development. You tag releases with a semantic version when they are ready for deployment. You require your pipeline to apply the Terraform code whenever there is a new release, and you need to minimize operational overhead. What should you do?

CCreate a build trigger with the .* tag pattern.

DCreate a build trigger with the \d*\.\d+\.\d* branch pattern.

[Optimizing service performance]

You manage several production systems that run on Compute Engine in the same Google Cloud Platform (GCP) project. Each system has its own set of dedicated Compute Engine instances. You want to know how must it costs to run each of the systems. What should you do?

Options

AIn the Google Cloud Platform Console, use the Cost Breakdown section to visualize the costs per system.

BAssign all instances a label specific to the system they run. Configure BigQuery billing export and query costs per label.

CEnrich all instances with metadata specific to the system they run. Configure Stackdriver Logging to export to BigQuery, and query costs based on the metadata.

DName each virtual machine (VM) after the system it runs. Set up a usage report export to a Cloud Storage bucket. Configure the bucket as a source in BigQuery to query costs based on VM name.

MultipleChoice

[Building and implementing service monitoring strategies]

Your company recently migrated to Google Cloud. You need to design a fast, reliable, and repeatable solution for your company to provision new projects and basic resources in Google Cloud. What should you do?

Options

AUse the Google Cloud console to create projects.

BWrite a script by using the gcloud CLI that passes the appropriate parameters from the request. Save the script in a Git repository.

CWrite a Terraform module and save it in your source control repository. Copy and run the apply command to create the new project.

DUse the Terraform repositories from the Cloud Foundation Toolkit. Apply the code with appropriate parameters to create the Google Cloud project and related resources.

MultipleChoice

[Applying Site Reliability Engineering (SRE) principles to a service]

You recently noticed that one of your services has exceeded the error budget for the current rolling window period. Your company's product team is about to launch a new feature. You want to follow Site Reliability Engineering (SRE) practices. What should you do?

Options

ANotify the team about the lack of error budget and ensure that all their tests are successful so the launch will not further risk the error budget.

BNotify the team that their error budget is used up. Negotiate with the team for a launch freeze or tolerate a slightly worse user experience.

CEscalate the situation and request additional error budget.

DLook through other metrics related to the product and find SLOs with remaining error budget. Reallocate the error budgets and allow the feature launch.

Question No: 7

MultipleChoice

[Building and implementing service monitoring strategies]

You are running an application in a virtual machine (VM) using a custom Debian image. The image has the Stackdriver Logging agent installed. The VM has the cloud-platform scope. The application is logging information via syslog. You want to use Stackdriver Logging in the Google Cloud Platform Console to visualize the logs. You notice that syslog is not showing up in the "All logs" dropdown list of the Logs Viewer. What is the first thing you should do?

Options

ALook for the agent's test log entry in the Logs Viewer.

BInstall the most recent version of the Stackdriver agent.

CVerify the VM service account access scope includes the monitoring.write scope.

DSSH to the VM and execute the following commands on your VM: ps ax I grep fluentd

Question No: 8

MultipleChoice

You deployed an application into a large Standard Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE) cluster. The application is stateless and multiple pods run at the same time. Your application receives inconsistent traffic. You need to ensure that the user experience remains consistent regardless of changes in traffic. and that the resource usage of the cluster is optimized.

What should you do?

Options

AConfigure a cron job to scale the deployment on a schedule.

BConfigure a Horizontal Pod Autoscaler.

CConfigure a Vertical Pod Autoscaler.

DConfigure cluster autoscaling on the node pool.

Question No: 9

MultipleChoice

You are configuring Cloud Logging for a new application that runs on a Compute Engine instance with a public IP address. A user-managed service account is attached to the instance. You confirmed that the necessary agents are running on the instance but you cannot see any log entries from the instance in Cloud Logging. You want to resolve the issue by following Google-recommended practices. What should you do?

Options

AAdd the Logs Writer role to the service account.

BEnable Private Google Access on the subnet that the instance is in.

CUpdate the instance to use the default Compute Engine service account.

DExport the service account key and configure the agents to use the key.

MultipleChoice

You are part of an organization that follows SRE practices and principles. You are taking over the management of a new service from the Development Team, and you conduct a Production Readiness Review (PRR). After the PRR analysis phase, you determine that the service cannot currently meet its Service Level Objectives (SLOs). You want to ensure that the service can meet its SLOs in production. What should you do next?

Adjust the SLO targets to be achievable by the service so you can bring it into production.

Options

BNotify the development team that they will have to provide production support for the service.

CIdentify recommended reliability improvements to the service to be completed before handover.

DBring the service into production with no SLOs and build them when you have collected operational data.

Question No: 12

MultipleChoice

Your product is currently deployed in three Google Cloud Platform (GCP) zones with your users divided between the zones. You can fail over from one zone to another, but it causes a 10-minute service disruption for the affected users. You typically experience a database failure once per quarter and can detect it within five minutes. You are cataloging the reliability risks of a new real-time chat feature for your product. You catalog the following information for each risk:

* Mean Time to Detect (MUD} in minutes

* Mean Time to Repair (MTTR) in minutes

* Mean Time Between Failure (MTBF) in days

* User Impact Percentage

The chat feature requires a new database system that takes twice as long to successfully fail over between zones. You want to account for the risk of the new database failing in one zone. What would be the values for the risk of database failover with the new system?

A.

MTTD: 5

MTTR: 10

MTBF: 90

Impact: 33%

B.
