GCP Professional Cloud Architect Practice Question

Your team uses Cloud Build for CI and Cloud Deploy for CD to roll out a containerized microservice to Google Kubernetes Engine. After automated unit, integration, and system tests pass, the release is deployed to a dedicated "uat" GKE namespace where product owners need up to 24 hours for exploratory user-acceptance testing. Only when they approve should the pipeline continue to the production GKE cluster. The solution must minimize custom scripts and provide an auditable record of the approval. How should you modify the delivery pipeline to meet these requirements?

  • Configure a pre-deploy hook in Cloud Deploy to run 24 hours of load tests directly against the production cluster, then send stakeholders a Pub/Sub notification when complete.

  • Create separate Cloud Deploy pipelines for UAT and production and instruct product owners to run "kubectl apply" against production after they finish testing.

  • Insert a Cloud Build post-build step that automatically runs "gcloud deploy releases promote" to production when integration tests finish.

  • Add a manual approval gate on the production target in the Cloud Deploy pipeline and assign the product-owner group as approvers so promotion to production can occur only after they approve.
