20+ practice questions focused on Deploying and Implementing a Cloud Solution — one of the most tested topics on the Google Associate Cloud Engineer exam. Each question includes a detailed explanation so you learn why the right answer is correct.
Start Deploying and Implementing a Cloud Solution PracticeYou want to create a Compute Engine instance with a default machine type of n1-standard-1, using the latest Debian 11 image, with a 50GB boot disk, in the us-central1-a zone. Which gcloud command accomplishes this?
Explanation: The correct command uses --machine-type, --image-family, --image-project, --boot-disk-size, and --zone. Option A includes all required flags correctly.
You have a managed instance group (MIG) with instances that need to run a startup script to configure monitoring agents. You created the instance template without a startup script. Which action should you take to add the startup script?
Explanation: Instance templates are immutable; you cannot modify them. You must create a new instance template with the startup script and update the MIG to use it via rolling update or by setting the template.
An organization needs to deploy a containerized web application on Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE) and expose it to the internet with a static IP address. The cluster is regional, with 3 nodes. Which sequence of kubectl commands achieves this?
Explanation: You deploy the application, then expose it with a LoadBalancer service. To get a static IP, you must reserve a global static IP address (using gcloud) and assign it via annotation --load-balancer-ip. Option D is correct.
You deployed a Cloud Run service with gcloud run deploy --image gcr.io/my-project/my-image --platform managed --region us-central1 --allow-unauthenticated. Users report intermittent 503 errors. What is the most likely cause?
Explanation: Cloud Run services have a default maximum number of concurrent requests per container instance (default 80). If traffic exceeds that, new instances are created, but if there is a sudden spike or the container takes too long to start, requests may be dropped with 503. Increasing max instances or concurrency settings can help.
You are managing a Cloud Functions deployment that processes messages from a Pub/Sub topic. You need to ensure the function can read messages from the topic and acknowledge them. Which IAM role should you assign to the function's service account?
Explanation: The Pub/Sub Subscriber role (roles/pubsub.subscriber) grants permission to pull messages and acknowledge them. The function's service account needs this role on the topic or subscription.
