initialNodeCount: 2
You want to use Cloud Deployment Manager to create this cluster in GKE. What should you do?

• A. gcloud deployment-manager deployments create my-gcp-ace-cluster --config cluster.yaml
• B. gcloud deployment-manager deployments create my-gcp-ace-cluster --type container.v1.cluster -- config cluster.yaml
• C. gcloud deployment-manager deployments apply my-gcp-ace-cluster --type container.v1.cluster -- config cluster.yaml
• D. gcloud deployment-manager deployments apply my-gcp-ace-cluster --config cluster.yaml

You are developing a new web application that will be deployed on Google Cloud Platform. As part of your release cycle, you want to test updates to your application on a small portion of real user traffic. The majority of the users should still be directed towards a stable version of your application. What should you do?

• A. Deploy the application on App Engine.
  For each update, create a new service.
  Configure traffic splitting to send a small percentage of traffic to the new service.
• B. Deploy the application on Kubernetes Engine.
  For a new release, update the deployment to use the new version
• C. Deploy the application on Kubernetes Engine.
  For a now release, create a new deployment for the new version Update the service e to use the now deployment.

You are the Google Cloud systems administrator for your organization. User A reports that they received an error when attempting to access the Cloud SQL database in their Google Cloud project, while User B can access the database. You need to troubleshoot the issue for User A, while following Google-recommended practices.
What should you do first?

• A. Review recent configuration changes that may have caused unintended modifications to permissions.
• B. Confirm that network firewall rules are not blocking traffic for User A.
• C. Review the error message that User A received.
• D. Verify that User A has the Identity and Access Management (IAM) Project Owner role assigned.

Your company is running a three-tier web application on virtual machines that use a MySQL database. You need to create an estimated total cost of cloud infrastructure to run this application on Google Cloud instances and Cloud SQL. What should you do?

• A. Use the Google Cloud Pricing Calculator and select the Cloud Operations template to define your web application with as much detail as possible.
• B. Implement a similar architecture on Google Cloud, and run a reasonable load test on a smaller scale. Check the billing information, and calculate the estimated costs based on the real load your system usually handles.
• C. Use the Google Cloud Pricing Calculator to determine the cost of every Google Cloud resource you expect to use. Use similar size instances for the web server, and use your current on- premises machines as a comparison for Cloud SQL.
• D. Create a Google spreadsheet with multiple Google Cloud resource combinations. On a separate sheet, import the current Google Cloud prices and use these prices for the calculations within formulas.
