GCP Professional Cloud Architect Practice Question

Your company is refactoring a monolith into several containerized microservices that will run on two regional Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE) production clusters. Compliance policy requires that only images that have successfully passed unit tests and vulnerability scans, and that carry a signed attestation, may be deployed. The development team also wants automated canary releases with automatic rollback if service-level objectives (SLOs) are violated. Which combination of Google Cloud services and features will satisfy these requirements while minimizing custom code?

  • Run Cloud Build to build and push images directly to Container Registry, then use an open-source Spinnaker installation on Compute Engine to deploy and manage rollouts, using a Kubernetes admission controller for gating.

  • Trigger Cloud Build for testing and scanning, push signed images to Artifact Registry with build provenance, enforce Binary Authorization on GKE, and use Cloud Deploy for canary rollout and automated rollback.

  • Use Jenkins on Compute Engine VMs for builds and tests, store images in Artifact Registry, and invoke kubectl apply from a Cloud Function on a Cloud Scheduler cron job to update both clusters.

  • Orchestrate builds with Cloud Composer calling Cloud Run jobs, store images in Artifact Registry, and deploy to GKE with Deployment Manager templates.
