Google Cloud Professional Cloud DevOps Engineer — Question 196

Your company is migrating its production systems to Google Cloud. You need to implement site reliability engineering (SRE) practices during the migration to minimize customer impact from potential future incidents. Which two SRE practices should you implement? (Choose two.)

Answer options

• A. Create up-to-date playbooks with instructions for debugging and mitigating issues.
• B. Ensure that all teams can modify the production environment to resolve issues.
• C. Create an alerting mechanism for your SRE team based on your system's internal behavior.
• D. Automate common tasks to analyze key impact information and intelligently suggest mitigating actions for the on-call team.
• E. Ensure that full autonomy and permissions are only granted to the on-call team.

Correct answer: A, D

Explanation

Answer A is correct because having updated playbooks helps in quickly addressing issues during incidents. Answer D is also correct as automating common tasks can improve response times and efficiency for the on-call team. Options B and E are incorrect because allowing all teams to modify production or limiting autonomy to only the on-call team can lead to operational chaos and delays in incident resolution. Option C, while useful, does not directly minimize customer impact in the same way as A and D do.
