Which architecture pattern should you use to implement asynchronous order processing to handle 10x Black Friday traffic spikes?
Answer options:
Write orders directly to the on-prem Oracle database synchronously.
Publish orders to Cloud Pub/Sub, then process them with worker microservices.
Use Cloud Scheduler to batch process orders every hour.
Store orders in Memorystore and flush to Oracle daily.
