You are running an application on Compute Engine and collecting logs through Stackdriver. You discover that some personally identifiable information (Pll) is leaking into certain log entry fields. All Pll entries begin with the text userinfo. You want to capture these log entries in a secure location for later review and prevent them from leaking to Stackdriver Logging.
What should you do?

  1. Create a basic log filter matching userinfo, and then configure a log export in the Stackdriver console with Cloud Storage as a sink.
  2. Use a Fluentd filter plugin with the Stackdriver Agent to remove log entries containing userinfo, and then copy the entries to a Cloud Storage bucket.
  3. Create an advanced log filter matching userinfo, configure a log export in the Stackdriver console with Cloud Storage as a sink, and then configure a tog exclusion with userinfo as a filter.
  4. Use a Fluentd filter plugin with the Stackdriver Agent to remove log entries containing userinfo, create an advanced log filter matching userinfo, and then configure a log export in the Stackdriver console with Cloud Storage as a sink.

What should you do?

  1. Use the n2-highcpu-96 machine type in the configuration of the MIG.
  2. Monitor results of Stackdriver Trace to determine the required amount of resources.
  3. Validate that the resource requirements are within the available quota limits of each region.
  4. Deploy the service in one region and use a global load balancer to route traffic to this region.

You support an e-commerce application that runs on a large Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE) cluster deployed on-premises and on Google Cloud Platform. The application consists of microservices that run in containers. You want to identify containers that are using the most CPU and memory.
What should you do?

  1. Use Stackdriver Kubernetes Engine Monitoring.
  2. Use Prometheus to collect and aggregate logs per container, and then analyze the results in Grafana.
  3. Use the Stackdriver Monitoring API to create custom metrics, and then organize your containers using groups.
  4. Use Stackdriver Logging to export application logs to BigOuery. aggregate logs per container, and then analyze CPU and memory consumption.

Answer(s): A
