Google Cloud Professional Cloud Architect — Question 51

Your solution is producing performance bugs in production that you did not see in staging and test environments. You want to adjust your test and deployment procedures to avoid this problem in the future.
What should you do?

Answer options

• A. Deploy fewer changes to production
• B. Deploy smaller changes to production
• C. Increase the load on your test and staging environments
• D. Deploy changes to a small subset of users before rolling out to production

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C because increasing the load on test and staging environments allows for better simulation of real-world conditions, which helps identify performance issues before they reach production. Options A and B do not address the underlying testing shortcomings, while D may help but does not enhance the testing environment itself.
