GCP Professional Cloud Architect Practice Question

Your organization is standardizing its incident-response process for a multi-region GKE workload. Requirements include: 1) capture and retain all application and platform logs for analytics, 2) automatically page the on-call SRE when a spike of log entries with severity ERROR or higher exceeds 100 per minute, and 3) manage the configuration through version-controlled Infrastructure as Code. Which approach most completely meets these monitoring, alerting, and logging goals?

  • Create a Cloud Logging sink that exports all project logs to BigQuery; define a logs-based metric for entries with severity ERROR or higher; add an alerting policy that fires when the metric exceeds 100 events per minute and routes to a Slack channel; manage the sink, metric, and policy definitions in Terraform modules.

  • Install the Ops Agent on all nodes to collect system metrics only; schedule a weekly Cloud Scheduler job that emails compressed log files from the nodes to the SRE team for manual review.

  • Turn on VPC Flow Logs and route them to Cloud Storage; create a dashboard that shows flow-log traffic volume; instruct on-call staff to perform ad-hoc log searches in the console during incidents without automated alerting.

  • Enable Cloud Monitoring uptime checks on each service endpoint; rely on default 30-day log retention in Cloud Logging; configure email notifications manually in the console for any failed uptime check.
