Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✓
Integrating monitoring and observability directly into value stream steps.
Why this is correct
Observability provides immediate feedback on system health and resilience.
- ✗
Coupling all services into a single tightly bound monolithic database.
Why it's wrong here
Tightly coupled monoliths reduce resilience and make failure cascading likely.
- ✗
Relying on manual deployments executed once per quarter.
Why it's wrong here
Manual quarterly deployments increase risk and reduce resilience.
- ✓
Designing modular architectures that allow independent component releases.
Why this is correct
Modularity prevents single points of failure and allows independent deployments.
- ✓
Automating deployment pipelines to ensure repeatable, low-risk releases.
Why this is correct
Automation reduces human error and accelerates reliable delivery.
