You are a developer working with the CI/CD team to troubleshoot a new feature that your team introduced.
The CI/CD team used HashiCorp Packer to create a new Compute Engine image from your development branch. The image was successfully built, but is not booting up. You need to investigate the issue with the CI/CD team. What should you do?

You recently developed a new application. You want to deploy the application on Cloud Run without a Dockerfile. Your organization requires that all container images are pushed to a centrally managed container repository. How should you build your container using Google Cloud services? (Choose two.)

Your App Engine standard configuration is as follows:
service: production
instance_class: B1
You want to limit the application to 5 instances. Which code snippet should you include in your configuration?

Your team is writing a backend application to implement the business logic for an interactive voice response (IVR) system that will support a payroll application. The IVR system has the following technical characteristics:
* Each customer phone call is associated with a unique IVR session.
* The IVR system creates a separate persistent gRPC connection to the backend for each session.
* If the connection is interrupted, the IVR system establishes a new connection, causing a slight latency for that call.
You need to determine which compute environment should be used to deploy the backend application. Using current call data, you determine that:
* Call duration ranges from 1 to 30 minutes.
* Calls are typically made during business hours.
* There are significant spikes of calls around certain known dates (e.g., pay days), or when large payroll changes occur.
You want to minimize cost, effort, and operational overhead. Where should you deploy the backend application?

You are developing an application using different microservices that should remain internal to the cluster. You want to be able to configure each microservice with a specific number of replicas. You also want to be able to address a specific microservice from any other microservice in a uniform way, regardless of the number of replicas the microservice scales to. You need to implement this solution on Google Kubernetes Engine. What should you do?
