You are using Terraform to manage infrastructure as code within a Cl/CD pipeline You notice that multiple copies of the entire infrastructure stack exist in your Google Cloud project, and a new copy is created each time a change to the existing infrastructure is made You need to optimize your cloud spend by ensuring that only a single instance of your infrastructure stack exists at a time. You want to follow Google-recommended practices What should you do?

• A.Create a new pipeline to delete old infrastructure stacks when they are no longer needed
• B.Confirm that the pipeline is storing and retrieving the terraform. if state file from Cloud Storage with the Terraform gcs backend
• C.Verify that the pipeline is storing and retrieving the terrafom.tfstat* file from a source control
• D.Update the pipeline to remove any existing infrastructure before you apply the latest configuration

You are running an application on Compute Engine and collecting logs through Stackdriver. You discover that some personally identifiable information (PII) is leaking into certain log entry fields. You want to prevent these fields from being written in new log entries as quickly as possible. What should you do?

• A.Stage log entries to Cloud Storage, and then trigger a Cloud Function to remove the fields and write the entries to Stackdriver via the Stackdriver Logging API.
• B.Use the filter-record-transformer Fluentd filter plugin to remove the fields from the log entries in flight.
• C.Wait for the application developers to patch the application, and then verify that the log entries are no longer exposing PII.
• D.Use the fluent-plugin-record-reformer Fluentd output plugin to remove the fields from the log entries in flight.

You support a production service that runs on a single Compute Engine instance. You regularly need to spend time on recreating the service by deleting the crashing instance and creating a new instance based on the relevant image. You want to reduce the time spent performing manual operations while following Site Reliability Engineering principles. What should you do?

• A.Create a Stackdriver Monitoring dashboard with SMS alerts to be able to start recreating the crashed instance promptly after it has crashed.
• B.Create a Managed Instance Group with a single instance and use health checks to determine the system status.
• C.Add a Load Balancer in front of the Compute Engine instance and use health checks to determine the system status.
• D.File a bug with the development team so they can find the root cause of the crashing instance.
