GCP Professional Cloud Architect Practice Question

Your company runs Java microservices on GKE across two regions. Users report 99th-percentile latencies above the 500 ms SLO, yet CPU and memory metrics look normal. You already collect structured logs and system metrics with Cloud Logging and Monitoring. The team needs a Google Cloud service that can follow a single request through every microservice, highlight the slow hop, and display the request's critical path in near real time. Which service should you enable?

  • Cloud Trace with application instrumentation (for example, via OpenTelemetry)

  • Exporting a logs-based metric to BigQuery for custom latency analysis

  • Error Reporting to aggregate and inspect stack traces across services

  • Cloud Profiler to collect continuous CPU and memory flame graphs
