Google Cloud Professional Cloud Developer — Question 43

You want to view the memory usage of your application deployed on Compute Engine.
What should you do?

Answer options

• A. Install the Stackdriver Client Library.
• B. Install the Stackdriver Monitoring Agent.
• C. Use the Stackdriver Metrics Explorer.
• D. Use the Google Cloud Platform Console.

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B, as installing the Stackdriver Monitoring Agent allows you to collect detailed metrics about your application's performance, including memory usage. Options A and C are not sufficient on their own for monitoring memory usage, and D is too general and does not specifically address the need to monitor memory usage.
