Question 1
You manage a critical API running on Cloud Run that serves an average of 10,000 requests per minute. You need to define service level objectives (SLOs) for availability and latency to ensure that the API meets user expectations. These include 99.9% availability and a maximum latency of 200 milliseconds for 95% of requests. You also need to ensure these SLOs are actively monitored and measured. What should you do?
Question 2
You are designing the hosting architecture in Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE) for business-critical applications. These applications provide custom metrics for monitoring with Prometheus. You need to collect the application metrics for alerting and troubleshooting purposes. You want to minimize the amount of manual effort and maintenance required while following Google-recommended practices. What should you do?
Question 3
You are developing a new containerized application that will be deployed to separate Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE) clusters for staging and production environments. You need to design a CI/CD pipeline that automatically builds and deploys the application to the staging environment whenever a developer commits code to the main branch. The pipeline must also include a manual approval step before any deployment to the production environment. You want to minimize operational overhead while following Google-recommended practices. What should you do?
Question 4
You are deploying a new version of a critical, high-traffic web application running on a single Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE) cluster. The new version contains a significant feature update, but there is concern about potential bugs impacting user experience and revenue. You need to gradually roll this update out to users and roll back if error rates increase. What should you do?
Question 5
Your company allows teams to self-manage Google Cloud projects, including project-level Identity and Access Management (IAM). You are concerned that the team responsible for the Shared VPC project might accidentally delete the project, so a lien has been placed on the project. You need to design a solution to restrict Shared VPC project deletion to those with the resourcemanager.projects.updateLiens permission at the organization level. What should you do?
Question 6
You are managing a complex microservices application running on Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE). You recently instrumented your services with OpenTelemetry to generate traces. During a performance investigation in Cloud Trace, you notice a transaction with high latency. The trace waterfall lacks the detail needed to identify the root cause, but you suspect the issue is within the business logic of the service. This service sends structured logs to Cloud Logging. You need to quickly analyze the logs that correspond to the high-latency request. What should you do?

Professional Cloud DevOps Engineer Practice and Access FAQs

Understand review, study tools and access before choosing your next step.

Who verifies the questions and answers?

Subject matter expert trainers in each niche review every question and answer before it enters the ExamPrepare database. Answer votes and discussions add perspectives after publication; they do not replace this review. Learn more on our methodology page.

How closely does the simulator match an exam?

The simulator uses vendor-style layouts and supported question interactions to help you practise navigation and pacing. Choose learning, practice or timed exam mode. Formats vary by exam; try the five-question sample to see the experience available for your certification.

What are hot questions?

Hot questions help you prioritise questions with stronger reporting or answer-vote activity. In the reading library, the filter selects questions with at least three recorded sightings or at least three votes for an answer. It has no recency cutoff and does not predict your exam questions. Use it alongside weaker topics and the exam objectives.

Can I read questions without starting a simulation?

Yes. Paid reading access lets you display 6, 10, 25, 50 or 100 questions per page, select a question range, filter for hot questions and show answers while reading. Choose the simulator whenever you want a learning, practice or timed exam session.

Can I download questions and answers as a PDF?

Each exam overview offers a free PDF sample of up to 10 supported questions. With paid reading access, you can also export supported single- and multiple-choice questions with their answers and images. Interactive question formats need the website and are not included as interactive PDF exercises.

How do votes and discussions relate to verified answers?

SME trainers review the questions and answers before publication. Imported answer reports show aggregate responses, while on-site votes and comments reflect participation on ExamPrepare. Use discussion to compare reasoning and investigate disagreements; a majority vote alone does not prove an answer correct.

What does a purchase unlock?

A purchase unlocks the complete question bank for the selected exam, access without CAPTCHA checks, reading controls, supported PDF exports and full learning, practice and timed simulation features. It covers that exam for the duration of the plan you choose, rather than every certification in the catalogue.

Where can I find my purchased exams and expiry dates?
